Mr. Brian McEnery:

I will tell the Deputy why. The agenda for business of the meeting that related to Northern Ireland would go out. If anyone had a conflict of interest they were supposed to submit a form. In addition, at the start of every meeting if there was a conflict of interest around the business of that meeting it would be asked, "Is there a section 30 disclosure?". Mr. Rowntree is right in what he said, because every NIAC board member was supposed to complete their annual declaration and that was given to the chairman.

At any given meeting if there was a conflict of interest that should have been declared.
