I have had no engagements and meetings, either public or private, official or unofficial with Mr. Denis O'Brien. I would have encountered him informally at a business function in New York, on official St. Patrick's Day business representing the Government. Given my position involves regular interaction with the media, I have met and spoken with senior editorial staff and journalists of several of the media companies in question.
