As I say, I think perception is important. Certainly, as the process was moving forward, for example, I had no knowledge of the fact that Inspector Gork was in fact the liaison officer, as I understand, but that he was mis-described. That could raise the issue of perception in the minds of the public. I think both Brown and the Auditor General talk about that.
