We know the organisation was in possession of Ms West's doubts and her very strong disagreement with the report furnished in her name. We know the organisation had that information when it went to the Policing Authority. Can Ms West say with certainty that the individuals who imparted that information publicly, at the Policing Authority in April and in June, had direct, personal knowledge of Ms West's disagreement? Does Ms West know the point I am making? Am I making it clear? We know that Ms West furnished reports where she could not say it any clearer: "I do not agree and I cannot sign off on this." Would the people who gave that information at the Policing Authority have been privy to that information directly? Ms West may or may not know this.
