I thank Mr. McCarthy for that clarification. They stayed in the meeting. That is a helpful clarification. According to the minutes of the meeting at paragraph 2.1, the chairman drew attention to the fact that he and the chief executive had been advised by Mr. McNamara at 8.30 p.m. the previous night that Mr. McNamara had been in discussions with Bank of Ireland and Anglo Irish Bank to secure the acquisition funding. Those two banks were named.
