With respect, Senator, on what we are trying to establish, I am not going into the matter of reading the minds of other people who were in the room that night. When we move to the nexus phase, we will have the opportunity to question those witnesses.

The Senator's substantive point is that the committee invited Professor Honohan this afternoon to clarify this for the Official Report. You have given a great deal of time to the inquiry and took responsibility because you were unhappy with your contribution. Has your thinking evolved since you wrote your report? Could you explain what your opinion was then and what it is now? What is your opinion of the facts at the time you wrote your report?
