In respect of Ms O'Sullivan's two quotes, I put it to her that it was premature at the very least and if we want to build confidence, that was not a response at that point. A response at that point would be, "Jesus, look at what is emerging here". The report is damning in my opinion on any level and yet the Commissioner went on Sean O'Rourke's programme to reassure the nation. That is my opinion and she is disagreeing with me. Second, the Commissioner minimised the importance of what happened by referring to it as accounting practices and legacy issues, and unacceptable practices now as opposed to the time it happened. Is that not incorrect as well?
