On the one hand, Minister, you said earlier that you flagged to the former chair that if you were asked, you would address the issue on "Prime Time". You flagged that at 4 p.m. or 4.30 p.m. Then you went out to RTÉ and flagged it yourself in order that you were going to be asked the question. Maybe RTÉ had the information, but you seem to suggest that you flagged it to them. Do you think that ethically that was the right thing to do?
