Mr. Kevin Bakhurst:

We do not generally like to make these negotiations public but because other parties involved made some of it public, we wanted to point out the reason we could not settle immediately for the apology. It was suggested we could. We were not prepared to do that. We were also not prepared to say as part of that apology that we totally disagreed with what had been said, which was also suggested.
