My first question is for Mr. Collins. He was asked yesterday if he was aware of the problem with the invoices and he said no. About an hour later into the meeting the committee got the truth from him that he was actually aware of the issue in early March. He had previously said he was not aware of it before 17 March. He said that Deloitte had spoken to him, had flagged up concerns and was seeking an explanation, and that he spoke to the director general following that and then was to get back to Deloitte. Can he tell us what the conversation with the director general was and what she actually told him about the invoices? What explanation did she give?
