-----free legal aid and had a senior counsel, a junior counsel and a solicitor. I am working from memory. There were other issues regarding that case involving information in the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions and so on. The family were less than satisfied and they continue to campaign on the basis that the decision has not been explained to them. I have raised the matter in the House and others have done so. I think the matter has been raised during Leaders' Questions in the House. That is just one example. Quite frankly, because the matter has been raised in the House and has been commented on in public, I believe I can say it here. It is the case of Shane O'Farrell.
