I am sorry to interrupt, but the committee will seek to visit two centres, one urban and one rural. We reserve the right to visit the centre in question. I thank Ms McHugh for her testimony. We will write seeking urgent clarification from the Minister of State and RIA and expect that Doras Luimní will regain access to the centre.
I apologise to members, but I have a final question about the Ombudsman. We heard Mr. Straton's evidence. I assume that Ms McHugh shares his opinions on oversight by the Ombudsman and the Information Commissioner, which constitute the same office.
