I thank Dr. Byrne. As did Senator Michael D'Arcy, I liked Dr. Byrne's last sentence and its call to arms, as well as the identification that the last time we lost a Parliament - I think Henry Grattan is one of her heroes - it was due to the mass corruption used to undermine that Parliament. Can Dr. Byrne relate all these thoughts, as well as her presentation this morning, to what this joint committee should do with regard to banks, their auditors and bank regulators? What principles would she draw from all her work to help this committee in the future?
