It did not just go to the Commissioner. Reading this, one would never have imagined that, as far back as 2008, which was seven years prior, Mr. Culhane had recognised the need for the Department and others, not least the Comptroller and Auditor General, to be informed of the matters that had been uncovered at Templemore. In fact, this letter reads as being hostile to Mr. Ruane or any form of disclosure. Of course, that seems to be what bothered Mr. Culhane about Mr. Barrett. I cannot reconcile how, in 2008, Mr. Culhane recommended disclosure but, in 2015, his position had changed. Does Mr. Culhane have an explanation for that?
