I deduce from what the witness has said that ConnectIreland connected with companies or potential investors in Ireland and sought to further that contact with them only to be stopped by the IDA. The reason given by the IDA is that it had already been in contact with those people. However, ConnectIreland subsequently found out from those people that the IDA had not been in contact with them at all. Is my understanding correct?
