You do not know. You have not asked him. That is the point made by Senator Burke. If somebody is trying to gather evidence, will the witness detail the effort made to gather it? The commission has not spoken to Mr. Kissane nor, I am sure, to many more of the individual customers. I cannot go through our individual emails but they are from people who worked in banks. They express concern about what was happening in the banks at the time. Within ten days of an email being raised at a committee, a bank decided to compensate an individual. That woman's biggest fear was that she worked in the bank and she was afraid of losing her job. That is why people rely on somebody like Ms Goggin. Has Mr. O'Leary spoken to Mr. Kissane?
