Mr. Mark Griffin:

The only consideration for the Department, and I must be clear about this, is what is most advantageous for the Department and for the users of the service. That was the only consideration for us in financial terms, market terms, service delivery and so forth. What happened in the acquisition of Enet happened utterly independently of the Department.
