Mr. Niall Cody:
It is a lesson to anybody appearing before any parliamentary committee. I know that Mr. Cook subsequently said "Sorry" and that what happened was not exactly as he had said. Apple has clarified the situation, and obviously it is appealing the case. If Apple felt that there was another story behind this, involving deals and political influence, I am sure that it would be reluctant to appeal the case.
