Mr. Tom Parlon:

Of course, absolutely ... a very rigorous interview process. But I felt at the time that my attraction to the CIF was that I had a long-term experience in being involved in a representative organisation in the IFA and had been a president of that and it's ... you know ... there's still ... there were individuals within the CIF that felt the IFA's mode of action by marching up the streets and making a big fuss and so on was a hell of a lot better than ... than Mr. Kelleher's previous campaign who was very diplomatic about how he did his business but that was just a view. And that's my understanding and that's my belief and I'm saying that very truthfully that my attraction for the job was my involvement. I have no doubt that having the experience of being in government and so on was a help ... but it was my previous organisational experience.
