I think this is getting petty. I understand that the Chairman has been specifically mentioned in this letter but if the committee engages in a tit-for-tat every time somebody writes a letter, I am not sure we are going anywhere. We should focus on compellability. If a claim is being made, that is fair enough but for us to start forwarding transcripts to the Revenue Commissioners, we are in danger of becoming petty. I think we should drop it and leave it. The Chairman has refuted this and everybody would accept that. I think we should leave it at that.
