As did everyone else, I welcome the Minister. I thank him for coming before the committee and fair play to him for being here. Given NAMA's autonomy, and it has its own business to do and no one can interfere and there can be no political interference, the only body that really can question it and have oversight of it is the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General in its report, and that is what happened on this occasion. At the end of the day, there was a difference of opinion on the report, but the only one that really can analyse what NAMA is doing and how it carries out its business, bar the Minister, is the Comptroller and Auditor General. Am I right on this?
