My quick observation of this correspondence that has come in about Mr. Culhane is that it contains a lot of withdrawals and retractions. This is to be welcomed on one level but cannot take away from any perceived failures in process and procedures. Retractions and withdrawals can be noted but we are dealing with what happened in real time. This needs to stated clearly. We can welcome and acknowledge withdrawals and retractions but they should not influence our report.
