The questions I asked were not related to the scoping inquiry at all, but the scoping inquiry was cited as a reason answers possibly could not be given. I do not buy that. The questions will be on the record. The Secretary General indicated on a number of occasions that she may provide a note of the matter. As well as asking for the information, we should point out that the scoping inquiry should not be a reason not to answer the questions. Second, could we get a view from the Secretary General on the timeframe for establishing a public inquiry if one is to be established?
