With the permission of the Vice Chairman, I wish to refer to the e-mail of 29 August 2007 in which the civil servant, having checked the views of the then Minister, now the leader of the Fianna Fáil Party, about bringing his wife on business trips with him, is attributed by an official to have "very strong ethical views on the matter". I want to quote the fourth last paragraph of Deputy McGuinness's e-mail in which he states: "Strong views do not ethics make. He could be mistaken." Was he mistaken?
