Mr. Tony Keohane:

I did not spearhead an investigation. There was no investigation, as the Deputy put it. What happened is that I sought clarification around the emails. I read myself into the brief as much as I possibly could. Before we came before this committee, I ensured that, as much as we possibly could, we had all the emails that were available. That took a bit of time, as I said earlier when I apologised for this delay. It meant contacting a number of people with the help of colleagues around the table and then allowing people time to respond on the basis of their advice. To be clear, it was not an investigation. It was a gathering of information.
