I have not got much time and will be pretty blunt with Mr. Gleeson. We were nobody down in the middle of countryside as turf cutters, yet we knew about appropriate assessment. We knew about screening out. Mr. Gleeson and his Department headed up in 2012 and it was not being done and the procedures were not put in place. This has landed us with somebody else bringing it to court. I am not saying I am an admirer of what they did but the gate was open for the sheep to go out the gap and Mr. Gleeson's Department let that happen and he can never deny that.

I have a second question. I want to run through them quickly because there are many people looking to come in.
