Suitably qualified people were not available in the Department of Finance at the time. Mr. Nyberg stated yesterday that people who give advice give advice and that those who make decisions make decisions. Would it have made any difference if suitably qualified people had been in place in the Department of Finance and had given alternative advice to those who made the decisions? Is it not the case that regardless of whether they were qualified, those people would have been ignored?
