In the time that you were in the civil servants and attached to the Department of Finance, and as you came close to the end of your period of time, would you have said that the centre of power, for want of a better expression, shifted at all from the Department of Finance to the Department of the Taoiseach or was it more equal, or was there any change. Because, arguably, people would've said the Department of Finance was more powerful at the end of the 20th century than it was in the beginning ... or in the middle of the 21st century, in the decade that we had, or would you have any comment to make?
