Mr. Rowntree, who was a witness here, seems to have contradicted Ms Finan. He said he was able to glean from information that was given out at meetings of the Northern Ireland Advisory Committee the identity of companies that were involved in the Project Eagle sale. He had no problem identifying them whereas Ms Finan said that no information whatever was given out at the NIAC meetings. Mr. Rowntree contradicted that by saying he was able to identify companies and that Mr. Cushnahan, who was at the meetings, would have had inside information. In other words, Mr. Rowntree said he was able to identify entities and derived inside information from what was presented to him at meetings in an advisory capacity. Ms Finan is saying that was not true. That is a contradiction in terms.
