Okay. This is to rectify that because people are watching and it will be brought to our attention. My other question relates to Ms Eade's comment that she had gotten one valuation. The committee has had experience of this where public funds are being expended in any area, regardless of whether it is a swap or not, that there would have been more than one valuation. I would have expected this from the Department. Maybe I am wrong but I ask Mr. Blake whether it would have been prudent for the Department to get its own valuation. How does it verify that the valuation is appropriate?
