Can I move on to one final area, on which I would like to ask Ms Feehily for an overview? I echo Ms Feehily's sentiments on getting this done as quickly as possible and on circulating the information as quickly as possible because there are victims, families and people with genuine concerns. In the section of her opening remarks that dealt with how the investigation is proceeding, she noted that there were a number of reclassifications and a number of instances in the 12 cases. Does she believe overall that there has been some type of enlargement and that the reporting of the distortion in the figures has almost become out of proportion by comparison with the reality? Might this have come about because of the internal arguments within An Garda Síochána that have arisen because of the reports? Would it be accurate to take it from the way Ms Feehily phrased her opening remarks that the argument on classification is very technical in many instances and, importantly, that the authority was happy at all times that an actual investigation took place?
