Ms Josephine Feehily:

As I said, I think the step we could have taken was to insist on their inclusion. That would have avoided at least a misunderstanding about what they perceived as our reaction and what we thought we were responding to but I guess that would probably have come after the April meeting, not at the 4 April meeting. At that stage, we were in a different stage, but after our meeting in public in April, looking back, it might have been appropriate to say they needed to be part of the delegation.
