Mr. Brian Cowen:

So if anyone else has a cc'ed e-mail please show it to me and let me give you any explanation you want, but I don't know anything about it. What would happen normally, by the way, in relation to e-mails that come into my office, they'd be screened by my private secretary. I wouldn't be looking at e-mails coming into my office and if there was anything, they would take it out and leave it on my desk for reading material. But, as I said here last week, I don't recall although it may have been the case that some briefing material was given to me generally about Anglo Irish Bank on the basis that I was going down to a dinner there but I don't recollect anything about it to be honest. The important point is this is any event, a lot of this can be a distraction, the important point is the evidence I gave last week is truthful and accurate evidence. I didn't discuss anything with Anglo Irish Bank of any substance that day.
