Public Accounts Committee

2013 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 30 - Agriculture, Food and the Marine

10:00 am

Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

I appreciate that but I think it reasonable that I say this. I am prepared to apologise for the fact that a judge found it necessary to find that our approach in that one case was heavy-handed but, unfortunately, in apologising for that, I do not know what I am apologising for because it is not clear from the court record what precisely that referred to.
