What about CDM Smith's role in all of this and its independence? What is the role of Queen's University Belfast because I believe this committee was misled? What about the public health impact? What about the groundwater study done by the EPA three years ago? What about Lough Melvin? I want to share with our witnesses the political feel that I have gotten from talking to many Deputies and Senators. Who is driving the train towards fracking?

Those are the broad areas.
