Grand, we will move on. Getting to the point the Acting Chairman wants, in March 2012, after the Supreme Court ruling, the Minister confirmed he would be in consultation with the Attorney General about the implications of the Supreme Court hearing and the documentation that was handed over to the legal team. He confirmed it again in a response to a parliamentary question. If we jump forward from the confirmation that he is in dialogue with the Attorney General about this, 18 months later the Office of the Attorney General is informed by the Garda Commissioner's office that there are tapes in respect of the Ian Bailey case and the Commissioner's office is concerned and is seeking advice on them. Is it not extraordinary-----
