I understand that legal representation has been granted to the major players who will engage with the inquiry. If, for example, the Garda Commissioner during her ordinary daily business is convening meetings, getting barristers before the inquiry even starts and hiring people in that manner, will all of that go into the Charleton inquiry costs in terms of her being entitled to do this, put a team of five together and use as many barristers and senior counsel as she wishes? Will that be lumped in under the Charleton inquiry legal representation costs?
