Professor John FitzGerald:

No, there are a lot of good people in Finance and they have different views and we would have worked closely with a team on the report. We had a very good relationship there. There would be nervous Nellies somewhere - I probably used an inappropriate phrase - and there are different people in the Department of Finance. What I do know is that it was at senior level, the concern about the 2006 report. Whether it was shared below or whether there were diverse opinions within the Department I do not know.
