As the Deputy who raised this over the summer, I read the memorandum of understanding, which lays down specific guidelines on the timing of the provision of information to the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council. It also lays down how that information is given to the Fiscal Council. Deputy Doherty's proposal is sensible. I accept the goodwill of the Minister's letter, where he states that he is amenable to providing that information. Let us get the clarification and if there is a problem tomorrow we can deal with it tomorrow.

Does Deputy Harris wish to comment?
