I am asking him that specifically because representatives of Cerberus will appear before the committee shortly. It has stated it met a number of people. It named Mr. McGuinness but did not state specifically when. It stated:

As part of its due diligence into the Northern Ireland economy and ongoing liaison with the stakeholders in the jurisdiction, Cerberus has had contact (to varying extents) with a number of Northern Irish politicians, including the First Minister, Peter Robinson, the deputy First Minister, Martin McGuinness [it goes on to list the Minister for Finance and so on]... These interactions involved senior Cerberus representatives, including in some instances, the Chairman, former Vice President of the United States...

Did Mr. McGuinness ever meet any representative, in any guise, from Cerberus, PIMCO or any other person or company bidding for Project Eagle?
