Does Mr. Buckley know? Does anybody else know? The officials will find the information, as there are 15 people from Mr. Casey's Department here. The fact that we cannot get answers when there are 15 people officials present is gross. If we cannot get an answer then why are 15 people here? Why, in the name of God? It is a farce that an entourage is brought to a meeting of the Committee of Public Accounts to sit in the balcony. I mean no disrespect to them and I am sure that they are all here to assist but for what I have no idea. I know that everybody is getting paid today but what reason they are here is beyond me because I cannot get an answer to my simple question.
