Is Mr. McDonald allowing for councillors' stupidity in terms of maybe not knowing what they were doing? We do not want to get into individual names because that is forbidden at this stage of the inquiry, but Mr. McDonald's statement clearly indicates corruption, which is an illegal activity. Based on what he observed, is he suggesting there was a transfer of cash or payment to individuals?
