I know that. I have watched some of it. The issue here is that on one side there is an attempt to mislead the Policing Authority and-or on the other side there is the question of the capacity of those presenting to the authority in the first place. That raises even more alarming issues, that is, if those who are presenting such rubbish, lack of information or lack of detail to the authority in the first place are in such significant roles. It is deeply worrying that there is an attempt to mislead the authority, and the members of the committee have all more or less come to that conclusion, or not provide sufficient information at the very least. However, it is another thing to say that the capacity of those who were presenting and what they felt they could provide to the authority at that meeting on 27 April was of such a standard.
