The more serious matter was discovered in the course of the Deloitte evaluation of what happened. It was then the transmission of data was discovered which was subsequently referred to the Garda Síochána. On 3 August, NAMA had no idea there was another potential offence involving the transmission of confidential data. There was no delay in dealing with the matter subsequently when that matter came to light. The agency acted expeditiously and in accordance with the powers under the Act. We will see whether there was damage in the revelations or not because the investigations are proceeding. As soon as the facts are established, I will inform the House of what has come to light on a suitable occasion.
