I thank the Minister and her team for coming in today. Coming back to the "Prime Time" interview on Thursday night, if that is okay, I watched it back before coming in here to remind myself of how it went down and what was said. It did seem to me that the Minister was very forthcoming with the answer when Miriam O'Callaghan put it to her about the role of the board in terms of oversight of exit packages and the fact she had been misinformed by Ms Ní Raghallaigh. The Minister was very forthcoming; she came straight out with it. In other words, it did not have to be dragged out of her. Would that be fair?
