We have heard from her but separate from that, I have read everything and I understand it. I do not want to go into the minutiae of different members of staff. I am looking at it from an overall perspective. We are here today with all these reports because of the whistleblowers and their persistence. We are here because of the "Prime Time Investigates" programme and because of the reports of the Comptroller and Auditor General. We are here because of a lack of governance. Even where proper governance is in place in theory, it is not being implemented in practice. Mr. O'Brien was looking back but found no evidence at all in terms of what happened in the subsidiary companies.
