I welcome Mr. Fraser and Mr. McCarthy. I wish to put on the record that it is disappointing in some respects that we are meeting and discussing this matter now. I reluctantly voted to have today's hearing but I will stick to process and oversight mechanisms, which is what I want to get a sense of. I have got some flavour of it already. Mr. McCarthy audits the accounts. What are the roles or titles of those with whom he interacts in the Áras in the course of auditing those accounts?
