Mr. McGuinness has made an allegation now and while I thank him for coming here, from my perspective he has come with the opposite agenda to the one he told me. It is for him to do the pointscoring to absolve Sinn Féin of any role in this. The fact that he says he was not involved in various meetings or conversations is not the issue. The issue is why he did not get involved and ask questions. That is my real issue.
Given the line that Mr. McGuinness has taken on this to date, is he telling us, and he has referred to the Democratic Unionist Party, DUP, on numerous occasions saying it was more involved in this than the Sinn Féin side of the house, that he believes the First Minister at the time misled him?
