Mr. McCreevy, I'm going to bring things to a conclusion now. But as I said earlier, and with all witnesses, the purpose of this inquiry is not just to go back into the past and to see what happened and to give the fullest picture to the Irish public in terms of the full story as to the financial crisis and the aftermath that this country faced, but also an opportunity to draw lessons from that to apply into the future and which will inform the final report that we will be bringing forward to, to the best of our ability, ensure that a crisis of this type is not revisited upon the shoulders of the Irish public again.

In that regard, if I could invite you to make any closing comments that you may wish to make, the matters that may be outstanding this afternoon that you need ... that you feel that you can give somewhat further attention to, or anything, given your extensive experience as a senior politician here in Dáil Éireann with regard to suggestions going into the future?
