The committee should have been given the full pack of documents. The HSE provided three memorandums last week and a draft press release was ready to go, if required. If we did not know there was a draft press release - fair dues to Deputy Jonathan O'Brien for teasing out that information - we would not have been able to ask questions about it. We would have left this meeting not knowing that the HSE had a draft press release ready. The witnesses will understand our position in this matter.
