The witness has given a figure that he would give to a woman and of course not every woman is going to see Dr. McKenna is she? No she is not. This was shambolic before we came in here. I imagine Mr. O'Brien came in here with his large assembled team to do some form of damage limitation exercise. With respect, he has made it worse. There is not one solitary woman outside of here who will be comforted by what he is saying. The error rate could be 30%, it could be less than that, it might not be 100%.
