Mr. Long said earlier that the circumstances that led to Project Eagle and the characteristics of Project Eagle were unique. Deputy McDonald started to refer to aspects of the political sensitivities as well. Will Mr. Long expand on that constant reference to the unique characteristics? Again, it is not just Mr. Long who has mentioned it. Senior NAMA officials who have appeared before the committee also mentioned it. It appears to be a get out of jail card. Everybody continues to refer to this as a unique project, as if it allows one somehow to cover over any other aspect to it. Will Mr. Long expand on that, please?
