The point I was making was that this was one that could have been anticipated. On the timing of questions, I fully appreciate what Mr. O'Brien said. Equally, the HSE could time its responses according to when it received questions. I hold up my hands as I suspect it was my questions that went in on Monday morning. However, there were others which were received long before then. I do not see why everything has to be left to the last minute. Responses could be sent according to when questions were received. It will not be news to Mr. O'Brien that we have considered and discussed the timing of responses to our questions on more than one occasion.
