I will start with Mr. Lynch. He previously said he knew nothing about the underwriting of the Renault deal with RTÉ. However, as others have said, Noel Kelly showed us the emails from Breda O'Keeffe. It is clear from what we have seen that he actually knew, but he told the committee that he did not. I will quote from his previous appearance at the committee. He said "I also asked each individual executive board member to give me a guarantee that they knew nothing about the underwriting, which was given to [you]". He told us that he and the executive board knew nothing about the underwriting, so he misled the committee.
