David Cullinane: I understand one of the recommendations of Mr. Kelly's report is that this should happen. It is not that we can just say it is up to the individuals. It is recommended. Mr. Kelly's report also states - the Commissioner touched upon this - that support would then be given to those individuals to explain their obligations to them. It is one of the recommendations of the interim audit...

David Cullinane: We are all tired after a long day but it has been extraordinary. I found a lot of the statements and answers given by some of the witnesses today to be shambolic and deeply troubling. It is a real matter of concern for us because we are messengers of the people.
