I know Mr. Justice MacCabe has to be careful. I take it from what he has said about cultural change that until reasonably recently - perhaps two or three years ago - there were difficulties getting that level of co-operation. Most observers would concur with his suggestion that a cultural shift is happening. Perhaps up to the fairly recent past, there would have been many difficulties.
