No. There were not issues. There is a minuted record from the Department's management committee, which prepared a letter for the Attorney General asking for a definitive ruling.

The draft was sent to the Secretary General for his signature and the committee's minutes record in March of 2004 that the letter had been signed and sent. It was not, and nobody has ever explained it. May I have an explanation? Why do the minutes differ from the actual facts? I ask because this goes to the heart of transparency, what is real and what is not, and what is concealed and what is not. Why are the minutes different from what actually happened?
