Going back to Mr. Walsh's role in all of this, I asked whether he had read the transcript. I would have thought that, as a matter of course, if I was up before the Committee of Public Accounts and I made a declaration on several occasions in respect of an issue - in this instance that cases are assigned on a randomised basis - the first thing I would have done when I went back to the office would be to ask somebody to make sure that was actually the case. Mr. Walsh did not do that. Is that not his evidence? He has not at any point up until this current review carried out an assessment as to whether the assertions he is making to the Committee of Public Accounts are factual.
