It could have been is the answer. One of the questions we will pose is how we are going to get to those answers. Reasonable people watching this will ask who credibly could it have been. Mr. O’Brien has indicated there is an internal leak in the commission to the media. Why would the media then bother having to engage in surveillance if they could get the information anyway? I do not think it is the complainant. Who has an interest in conducting surveillance on GSOC? Mr. O’Brien has said seven people had access to the commission’s secret report which he fears might end up with the media. Was the report in electronic format? Were there hard copies? Who had access to them? Was the report produced by the A list surveillance team? How could it have got the basis to the report so wrong as to contradict Mr. O’Brien’s interpretation of why he had employed it?
