The letter was written to the Commissioner, so obviously she would have received it. She would have read it. She would have had to consider what it said when she received it, although perhaps not in preparation for this meeting. I accept that, but she certainly would have received the letter. It says that at the meeting which took place - the meeting which Mr. Barrett says took over two hours and which the Commissioner says was over a shorter time period, but let us park that for a second - that written advice was given by Ken Ruane, who was head of legal affairs, and that the 2008 report of Mr. Barry McGee was appended to a lengthy letter from Mr. Ruane. Is that correct?
