On a point of information, I was Chairman of a committee during the previous Dáil. Many committees commence their meetings in private session and the transcript starts in public session. There was confusion. As Chairman of that committee, I listened to the audio tapes with the clerk across the road in Kildare House to clarify what was stated by various members in private session. The clerk might not be aware of this, but it can work both ways. I can verify that I have done that.
