Mr. Watt is not the Minister, Deputy Donnelly is the Minister and he is on "Morning Ireland" answering questions about this secondment. I will get to the contents of the letter in a moment.

Mr. Watt cannot tell me this morning if at that point on 6 April the Minister when on "Morning Ireland" was aware of the details, which were clearly set out. The details of that letter are the crux of this. It clearly sets out the financial implications of this secondment, if we can call it that, but I will come to that later. Mr. Watt is not clear-----
