We should agree that it is disappointing that both of those happened. In the case of the one about the report from the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General, that happened one day before the publication and went to a journalist. Obviously, the journalist has to do his job; I would not expect him to do anything else. In fairness to them, that is their business and we need to have a free press. Mr. Makhlouf has come along to today's meeting and yesterday we had another article from the same journalist in the same newspaper regarding the €53 million settlement paid by PwC over the Quinn collapse. Does Mr. Makhlouf not find that a strange coincidence?
