That is what we will decide. I suggest we take the time to read the correspondence. I have read the cover letter. As I said, it was circulated late yesterday and the first sight I had of it was this morning. As Chair of the committee, I want to read it first as there may be useful information in it. I also think, given it is a time-sensitive issue, that we should advise the correspondent to forward any information he has at this point to GSOC. If GSOC is in the final stages of its criminal investigation and if the correspondent has information that may be pertinent to that, he should forward it to GSOC immediately. Obviously, GSOC has to make judgments on these matters, and the more information it has, the better. If the correspondent has accurate, detailed information, it needs to be in the hands of GSOC and that is where this matter properly rests. I want to bring in Deputy Carthy.
