I thank the witness. A copy of an e-mail has been passed to me which seems to have been sent from Mr. Horgan to Mr. Poole on 18 December that year. The subject line is "coffin business plan", which tallies with Mr. Poole's account. It states "Attached please find further document for discussion at our meeting this afternoon". It is interesting that not only was it sent to Mr. Poole but it was also sent to Ms Angela Kerins. This is 18 December 2009 and Complete Eco Solutions had been established with Ms Kerins's husband, her brother and Mr. Flannery as the directors and shareholders of the company. The witnesses have told us Ms Kerins has absented herself from any dealings with the issue. Why would Mr. Horgan e-mail her and state "Attached please find further document for discussion at our meeting this afternoon"? I have the document here if other colleagues wish to see it. Does Mr. Poole or Mr. Kerr have an explanation for that?
