I have made it clear to NAMA's representatives that, in coming before the committee, they will have to answer all of these questions. There may be difficulties concerning court cases, but they say they are willing to come before the committee. They want to put their case before they start to release all of their answers in response to the accusations or allegations made. Aside from this, if the committee agrees to ask them in today, it is only proper that we ask for any documentation the Department of Finance has on this matter because the Department is being accused of withholding 16 files, depending on which news outlet one listens to or reads. That is also important.
