I appreciate Deputy Healy raising this issue. The committee was of one voice on the last occasion it engaged with the PCRS team in Finglas. That was the key appeal we made. It is not a case of us always being against it. We are here to try to be a practical bridge to a resolution or at least to get an answer, so we can explain to those who see us as a buffer in this situation. We have a role to play. It is a complementary role, not always adversarial. The one thing we do not have is somebody to talk to. It is absolutely bizarre. It was accepted on the day, but it has never been implemented.
