I have a final question. The Minister has appointed one person but she has not appointed all of them. This is going round in circles. I am asking, as I did at our first private meeting, that we have a Garda investigation into this, because I knew what was going to go on. These people have come in, and more will come in next week and more will come in the future. This will go on and the next thing you know, tomorrow's scandal will blow it away. When you do RTÉ "Prime Time Investigates", and you do a good job on that in the main, you do not accept legal advice from a firm or somebody that everything is okay. You go in and forensically interrogate and put it out on RTÉ "Prime Time Investigates". The hat and the focus is on different people now, so you are falling far short in being upfront and with your legal advice. You cannot hide behind legal advice for fiduciary failures of executive board members. You just cannot. Ordinary and voluntary boards around the country, which many of us, and maybe many of you too, sit on, are expected to do things right, but RTÉ seems to have this idea that it can do as it likes. You were asleep at the wheel, you were incompetent, and you did not do your job.
