We understand that; it is all in the documentation. The critical point is that it was picked up but not acted upon. When the Comptroller and Auditor General was doing his job examining this, he was not given a credible reason as to why it was not acted upon. Certainly if a credible reason was given, it is not in his report, which is unacceptable.

I have one final question and I will come back in on the second round. Mr. Bourke made an interesting observation earlier when he said that he was concerned about this in September 2017 when he took over his role and he sought an internal review in November 2017. I think he was just about to say that in May 2018 a first draft of that review was available. Is that correct?
