I want to refer briefly to the lobbying issue that Deputy Murphy mentioned. Mr. Carswell referred in his opening statement to cosy relationships, which Deputy Murphy mentioned. In the period prior to the crisis, did Mr. Carswell unearth any evidence of those lobbying relationship between either financial institutions or representatives of the sector and leading political players at the time and how those relationships may have impacted on decisions of the then Government?
