That is fair enough. I agree with the other members that we should be mindful that an investigation is ongoing but we should also bear in mind that we are independent of Government and that we should go ahead with our remit and should not be in any way inhibited from going ahead with it.

I presume the investigation will take an extraordinarily long period and there is a need for a more immediate reply to those questions, in particular about money.
