Mr. Chairman, whenever I have been informed of anything in 36 years of my career, I've always acted upon it immediately. I never passed the buck. I never abdicated.
What you have just said is totally unfair, and I totally disagree with it. Chief Superintendent Macaulay was promoted by me. When he came back from DND on an excellent secondment, he was given an excellent job. If that is what you consider punishment, I'd like you to clarify what that means. I never passed the buck, and I took my responsibilities seriously.
