I will go back to Mr. O'Toole on what prompted the legal advice. They have expanded on that.

Obviously, the HEA initiated this review and had gone a sizeable way and had put funding into it, in staffing and expertise. There was an airing of a preliminary version of the report and then it took some further legal advice.

I asked what prompted the legal advice. Was the Higher Education Authority threatened in connection with the report and, if so, in what way? Was the matter taken any further?
