'You had the opportunity to do something about it and you didn't take it, disregarding the consequences for those who are the subject of the unlawful scheme,' Wilson is told. She replies: 'I could have acted and I didn't.'
Later, it is put to Wilson she failed to act with 'actual knowledge of the consequences of the raising of unlawful debts on a large scale'. After a long pause, Wilson replies: 'Yes, I think you are right'.
