Mr. McCarthy said his office experiences resource difficulties from time to time. Will this affect any of the work in which we are involved? What difficulties are there? Do they impinge on the Comptroller and Auditor General doing his job in any way? From talking to those who were members of the Committee of Public Accounts before and colleagues, I am conscious that the volume of information and data management here will be incredible. I very much welcome and was taken by the fact that Mr. McCarthy is examining other ways in which to provide us with the information. Could he elaborate on how he will do it? We need to have the capacity to examine everything. I presume Mr. McCarthy is talking about providing information in some format and then we can make a decision about whether we will dig deeper. It would be helpful, and we can make our own decisions. Could Mr. McCarthy elaborate on it?
