How is it that we have a document from the head of human resources which talks about accounts being potentially compromised and then a letter sent by the Commissioner to Mr. McCarthy at the end of July in which she stated that there was no problem and that everything was okay. When she was briefed, she was aware of the irregularities. A steering group had been established. The head of human resources was saying that accounts were potentially compromised and yet the Commissioner gave a letter of assurance to the Comptroller and Auditor General's office that said that everything was okay.
