I too want to address some questions. Mr. Cahillane's colleagues said here on 3 July that checks on Carillion in the UK were flawed but that the National Development Finance Agency, NDFA, had done everything it could to vet the company in Ireland. That is unacceptable. Does he feel that the subcontractors sitting in the room can accept that? He cannot stand over the fact that the NDFA had vetted them, looking at where we we are today. Who vetted Sammon? Can I ask Mr. Cahillane what checks and balances were put in place when awarding Sammon the subcontract?
