Just for clarity, Azi, I am not saying this is a practice which was right or should continue. I am saying there ought to be a small emergency spending account, to fix mistakes and to react to crises that were unforsween. None of us knew about these faux groups and it is my udnerstaninding that when the Speaker found out, she ordered it stopped---as it should be. However, there was nothing venal going on here.
