I have two questions to clarify a point made by Deputy Mary Lou McDonald while summing up. In the previous round of this process there were 150 situations where there was disagreement between the Information Commissioner and the then Government. From what Ms O'Reilly has stated, I assume she has received a written explanation of the reason the Government of the day or the Department was in disagreement with her with regard to the disclosure of that information. Is this correct?
