Mr. John Cregan:

In the final page of my report I said that this was a series of skirmishes between the HSE and the CRC. It took a long time to get to a situation where there was absolute clarity in terms of all the issues facing the CRC and the related undertakings.

In regard to the HSE, I commented on how we got to the stage where an interim administrator was appointed. I think, and I have said it already, it would have been preferable for two directors to work with the HSE in terms of establishing where we were.
