I thank the Chairman. Before we suspended we were talking about the stuff that came up when Mr. Carville was in the last day and I made a number of suggestions. In particular, I asked if we could see the contract with the special liquidator even in private session. The Chairman pointed out it was possible for us to view documents in private session which would not be published. Mr. Carville said he would check it out and come back to us. We also asked for the minutes of meetings on the updates. In 2016, there were eight such update meetings. At that stage in December, there had only been three in 2017. The commentary around that was it was up and running so there was less of a need for meetings. I asked for the minutes of those and minutes of meetings between the Minister and any officials to do with the costings or fees. Mr. Carville was going to check all of those. Speaking outside the ring, the secretariat has said it was an oversight not to include it in the letter that went to the Department but it said to look at the transcript. Mr. Moran and others must have missed it when they were looking at the transcript.
