Alan Kelly: Perhaps we can ask Mr. Nugent. He is just the conduit for getting information rather than this having anything to do with him. Perhaps he will go back to the period of time when Mr. Dunne was there and look for all contracts of €100,000 or more and supply the committee with a list.

Did it not strike him that he had an obligation as the chief administrative...
