Mr. Jim Breslin:

I have thought about this because we have been criticised for doing it. In my view, if any one of us was facing, with our own money, the type of cost implications that were being faced here around a contract compliance issue, we would want to establish the other party's compliance with the contract. While it might be unusual in our experience, it is not unusual in court cases that that would be used part of a defence.
