I welcome the deputy First Minister and thank him for taking time out of his busy schedule to be here with us and for the courtesy of attending.

He mentioned in his opening statement that the Executive would have been aware and supportive of the intention to appoint Northern Ireland advisers in the context of NAMA's undertaking. For the record, can Mr. McGuinness give his knowledge who he felt would be appointing those advisers? Did he expect to have input into that?
