I am asking this question because the recorded phone calls mentioned that the payment was to a named individual. It is strange in a top firm of solicitors that the cheque would go to a named individual. Professional companies do not do their business by making payments to named individuals. NAMA was aware of this from the phone call in March and it was mentioned in the minutes. Did it not strike Mr. Daly as unusual? We have spoken about the minutes. They were carefully written and do not contain any extra flannel. The minutes specifically record that the payment was to the managing director. This had to sound strange to Mr. Daly, who knew that-----
