Can I ask that a ten-year record of the barter account be published and given to this committee and to the Committee of Public Accounts? It would be a very useful piece of work, if that could be produced as soon as possible.
The Grant Thornton report states, on page 15, that "The Talent's Agent has also advised me that they have identified a substantial number of invoices on behalf of various other clients where the term 'Consultancy Fees' is used". Mr. Noel Kelly makes those remarks in terms of different invoices that have gone in using those "consultancy fees" that we have already been told by Mr. Collins that the true nature of the invoices was concealed, essentially, by using that terminology. Did this substantial number of invoices that Mr. Kelly is talking about go through the barter account?
