Text
The Minister is keen to defend his officials, which is fine. Our job is to ensure the accountability of officials and Ministers, and we should make no apology for that. He mentioned the past three or four years of, apparently, looking at the legalities, but have his officials looked at any potential legal liability that is created by the legal anomaly that has arisen over the past three or four years? Are there any exposures there?
