Mr. Kevin Cardiff:

Well, I can ... the reason that the question was put was, I think obvious enough. The Taoiseach was about to ... was coming close, I suppose, at that stage at finalising his mind and other people were coming close to finalising their minds so I suppose it was a check on where we were around the room. As to whether, as to why Brendan was outside, well Brendan was outside because the people in the room ... the senior people in the room, didn't choose to bring him in.
