Mr. John O'Callaghan:
As I said, the discovery was initially voluntary discovery in relation to the matters which were directly pertinent to the establishment of the disclosures tribunal, namely, the O'Neill report and the protected disclosures that gave rise to that report. Then there were discovery orders made relating to transcripts of the commission of investigation and other matters. There was no general wide spread trawl of documents through the Department.
