On whether or not Public Works would be liable, based on what we have said in these proceedings, Mr. Walsh is right. The precedent on that, the case law on that, is perfectly clear. The Gagliano case is the most recent.
However, as Ms. Meredith has said, Justice advises its client departments to comply with the law based not on whether we could be sued but on what we interpret the law to be. We don't act just because we think we can't be sued. We don't violate statutes. We don't recommend violating statutes. That is simply not a basis for principled advice, in our view. That explains the difference of view.
