I thank the witnesses for their interesting presentations.

On the issue of the 1926 census and whether or not a breach of confidentiality arises, I want to know the position of the Department in that regard. Are there safeguards we should be seeking to put in place, or are the current safeguards adequate?

Regarding the small number of parish registers and the delay in progressing that due to budgetary difficulties, what level of investment is required and how long would the project take to complete?

I recall the work done in Trinity College on the Down survey and digitisation. Is there information that would be useful, perhaps combined with current records, or do the records date too far back to be of any use?
