All I can say is the details have been gone over with a fine-tooth comb in two reports and at numerous committee meetings. Having looked back on it, and I know the people involved and have gone over it in great detail, I have absolutely no doubt that, notwithstanding mistakes that were made, everybody was trying to act in the right way to do the right thing. I absolutely believe that. I am not saying it worked perfectly - we know it did not and it did not happen - but I do not think anyone was trying to do other than the right thing, notwithstanding the findings on the mistakes that were made.
