It could have said it was not going ahead. The steering group did not see it because it did not have time. This is ridiculous. What is a steering group for? Has the steering group been got rid of? It seems it was excluded from the key decision for which it was in existence because there was not time. Why was there not time? Who was sitting on their hands?

Can I quote from the Taoiseach some weeks back? I did not read this in the PwC report. The Taoiseach said that they had looked at the terms of reference, and that the terms of reference would be revised to enable PwC to find individuals accountable, or to identify individuals who made particular mistakes. Who are the individuals? Who was asleep at wheel? Who caused such a substantial delay that we had to rush to take a decision for fear of having to dish out taxpayers' money because we did not manage our time well enough? Who is responsible?
