Dr. John Reynolds:

I thank the Senator for the question. It is important to be clear on that. There are some legal issues, as the Senator will have heard, across a range of legislation that the Houses work on. There are legal issues that are sometimes arguable either way. The Attorney General may say one thing and a Supreme Court judge may say another. Not many issues of international law, or of any law, are as black and white as this issue of the illegality of the settlements. There is no dispute. There is no indeterminacy. There is no ambiguity.
