I thank the Commissioner. We spoke about the Smithwick tribunal in October 2012 which was run in closed session. We spoke about one file in particular which was compiled by the PSNI, the RUC and MI5, the British Security Service. That intelligence indicated that a senior Provisional IRA council member was directly involved in ordering the murder of Tom Oliver. The Commissioner attended that meeting as assistant chief constable in the PSNI.
