Mr. Tony O'Brien:
In this instance, of the range of people who I know to have been invited to participate in, as distinct from speak at, the conference, there was a member of the procurement staff and a decision was made by the head of procurement not to attend. I know that to be the case. In my own case, I have no direct dealings with any supplier. I would not be involved in the selection of any of the products that this supplier is involved in and I do not personally sign off on those procurements.
I made a decision that this conference was worthwhile.
