I also have a question. I will take a question from the Deputy and we can get responses to all of the questions asked.

When the Committee on Finance, Expenditure and Public Reform considered the Freedom of Information Bill, representatives of ADI appeared before it. Testimony was given by Ms Bakaabatsile who said, "Another issue of concern is the number who have died while in direct provision accommodation. We need to know how many have died, the causes of death, the centres at which they died and about the care they received while there." The committee's report stated: "The Joint Committee was distressed to be told: "What is the point of people being granted refugee status when they are being buried in Ireland and what should happen to children in places such as Africa whose parents are buried here?" I want to obtain an update on the distressing evidence given to that committee.
