The Department took the view that it was happy to settle for a sham review in June, which is the only way I can describe it, and, arising from that in July, and the word of the chairman - and, for the purposes of clarity, I am not impugning the chairman - the Department took that view. The Minister took that view, the transaction was completed, the Department moved along and there was a new relationship framework, "sin sin", story over. That is it, in summary, is it not?
