Ms Oonagh McPhillips:
No. We checked. Back to 1992 and the late 1980s, there would have been many paper records and there is a registry with Kardex cards and so forth. We checked the registry to see whether there were any registered files that referenced this kind of matter and there are not. Audit files are not retained in that form. Audit up to the noughties was not as professionalised and detailed as it has since developed into.
