I apologise. I knew that there was a break between Mr. McCabe's administration roles. That is what happened. He worked on the crime side in the interim. Apologies for that. Will he answer that question for me in the context of those two periods and, perhaps, liaise through Mr. Nugent, who acts as the conduit?
Mr. Barrett informed us that Mr. McCabe advised him that there was a €2.3 million "in cash and near cash" in equities in the college. When did the Garda College start buying shares? What shares did it buy? Who made the selection and how was it made? What advice did Mr. McCabe get? Were companies whose shares the Garda College purchased ever investigated by the Garda Síochána?
