I wish to delve into this figure issue further. It seems that this was the motivator for the witnesses' request to address the committee. I would like Mr. O'Callaghan to clarify for the committee a statement which was given by Mr. O'Leary. Mr. O'Callaghan takes issue with the statement and the impression which was given. Mr. O'Callaghan states that Mr. O'Leary's statement gave the impression that this office was responsible for almost 600 cases which have been under appeal for more than five years. How many cases are under appeal in the Office of the Appeal Commissioners for more than five years?
