A number of accusations have been made about a number of Accounting Officers and they are well able to defend themselves, but I would not want the perception to be that Deputy MacSharry's opinion is one shared by all members. To be fair to them, the witnesses are brought before the committee to deal with certain issues. I do not have a difficulty in Mr. Carville answering the question depending on whether he wants to answer it, but we do not have access to all the information to which Deputy MacSharry says he has access, so we cannot form opinions.
