I have no problem at all. I proposed 15 minutes, but I have no issue at all with what people want. Our job is to hear the witnesses, to probe the issues and to get accountability at the end of the process. I have no issue with that, if Ms Hanna wants to propose that. We will leave it at ten minutes. When nine minutes are up, I will tell the person there is only one minute left. I may interrupt witnesses as well, so I ask them to bear with me on that. Is that agreed? Agreed. The first Sinn Féin speaker is Mr. John Finucane.
