This is the Oireachtas Committee of Public Accounts. Mr. Mac Eochaidh did this deal on behalf of the taxpayer, on behalf of his company and on behalf of the Minister. He says it is not a sale but it is a sale and we should be told about it. Mr. Mac Eochaidh makes the point that there is a legal difficulty so I am not putting him on the spot. If the figure will appear in the 2014 accounts, how will Mr. Mac Eochaidh deal with the clause relating to confidentiality?
