I will seek your guidance first, Chairman. I am not at all happy with how this has progressed and I wish to follow up on Deputy McDonald's questions. The committee has addressed a number of different issues where there were parallel examinations and investigations. In fact, in a number of instances there were criminal investigations. To take the example of the National Asset Management Agency, NAMA, there were three criminal investigations taking place, yet we still did our work on a loan sale known as Project Eagle and produced a report. The Chairman gave the example of the HSE hearings in which we discussed the Grace case while there was a commission of investigation examining that. Representatives of the Garda Síochána appeared before the committee while they were carrying out examinations and investigations of what happened in Templemore-----
