Mr. Conlan is in a unique position to answer my next question. We had this misleading or inaccurate statement provided by Mr. Kiely at the end of his testimony to this committee. We had Mr. Conlan’s successor at the Mater who provided clarity on it. It transpired the board of the CRC, as well as the auditors, signed off on financial statements which included the inaccurate statement on the Mater and its pension fund relationship with the CRC. Mr. Conlan has told the committee, and it is true, he was on the CRC board as chief executive officer of the Mater to look after its interests. Did he not spot this at any stage?
