Mr. Paul Maloney:

I assure the Chairman that the major ones he has mentioned did not happen on my watch. I do not need to reflect but if the Chairman gives me the information, which I have not seen - I have been working abroad for many years since then - I will definitely use the information to go back to the authority now and formally write to them seeking its records and I will come back to the committee on that. However, there were no business class flights, no flights to sporting occasions and no flights to Russia. None of that was ever allowed or sanctioned on my watch.
