Mr. Michael Culhane:

I do not see myself as being part of the problem. If anything, I see myself as being part of the solution, given the actions that I have taken on the issues identified in the 2008 report. I have no desire to undermine the professionalism of these two gentlemen. Mr. Niall Kelly is an independent auditor and he produces his reports without need for reference to me. I do not see that I have been interfering in his independence.
