Now we have an inquiry, and we will not have a discussion about that inquiry, with a very detailed set of terms of reference. One could assume there has been a failure by virtue of the fact there is a formal audit query and there is now an independent inquiry.

Has an instruction been given to each board member that he or she should not have discussions with other board members outside of the board and that they have been forbidden to have discussions with each other? Is that true?
