There are a few issues. First, if we agree to this person coming in, given the parallel investigation by the commission, the meeting would have to be held in private session. Second, there is a chronology. As Deputy Connolly said, are we better to wait for Mr. O'Brien to come in and then make a decision on whether we bring in this individual afterwards? This is also probably a need for the committee to liaise with the commission on this issue before we make a decision.
