I thank Ms O'Reilly for the excellent and fascinating report and the work that has been done on it. As she noted earlier, her office does re-balance the power individuals experience vis-à-vis the State. I also thank her for her statement of intent with regard to co-operation with this committee.

The issue of non-compliance arises on page 59 of the report. My understanding of this sub-committee is that, like the Ombudsman, it makes sure that there is compliance on the part of the State in respect of how citizens interact with it. Would Ms O'Reilly care to detail that issue of non-compliance and give her opinion on how we can help to get it ironed out?
