Mr. Culhane's letter makes seven points relating to handcuffs, Console, bank accounts, evidence of fraud and other issues. He put these matters in a letter in response to the draft interim audit report.

I want Mr. Culhane to produce evidence about how he came to write that letter. It is a serious letter and we need to see how he came to write it and what evidence or information he had to allow him to write it. If those elements of hearsay cannot be backed up it is a very serious issue. It adds to a view people have about trying to get the audit report accepted. I have an open mind but if it transpires that Mr. Culhane is able to back up the content of the letter, we will be back to Mr. Niall Kelly to verify it. I do not know where this letter stands but I want it verified.
