It is not credible that a public relations executive hired by a company of the size and scale of INM would attempt to mislead his client. It seems very clear to me from what is reported today that the email communicated with some considerable level of a definite understanding that the Minister would ultimately send the decision to the BAI. As I understand it, the Minister is disputing this, which is where the crux seems to lie. Will the Minister clarify for us that he is not accepting the position that seems to be contained in that email?
