I have had a fairly similar experience with regard to another matter in front of an inquiry regarding not answering questions. There is an issue with transparency. Will the Department will go back and talk to its legal advisers and perhaps the Minister about reconsidering the approach it is taking with the committee? If the Department has a good story to tell, why would it not want to tell it? Why would it not want to make the case in court a moot point? Will the Department go back, reconsider this and come back to the committee?
