The Deputy's point is well made. I made the point here on the previous occasion that there had been seven committee meetings across three groups, with 32 witnesses in attendance. I do not believe in unnecessary duplication but I do believe the Committee of Public Accounts dealt with specific issues. There was a debate at the health committee yesterday that probably covered areas that we will not be covering. The same happened with Templemore in that the justice committee said it should be considering that. The same happened with the issue of Mr. Maurice McCabe. That happens every time the Committee of Public Accounts deals with a matter. The Deputy's point is well made.
