Because there can be no disputing that, when in this country do people take responsibility for that? Nobody to my knowledge has been held to account for that. Where is the transparency? Mr. Ó Foghlú is the Accounting Officer. He may not have been in that position at the time but given the State and the Department got this so wrong and the taxpayer is paying contributions that should have been paid by the religious congregations, he can understand why we are concerned and why we want to make sure not only is a look back exercise conducted and mistakes recognised but that there is accountability for failures.

With respect to Mr. Ó Foghlú, that is not reflected in his opening statement, as I said in my opening remarks.
