The commitment was given that day. If Deputy Connaughton has another case now, he should refer it to the clerk of the committee so that we can try to get a response to it. The commitment was clearly given by the Secretary General, on foot of a very strong defence of the Department and the special investigations unit, that he would give a complete response. We had been told certain things but the Secretary General gave the totally opposite view. The least that we can expect is the reply that was promised. Deputy Deasy has had one response in terms of what is going on. I think there may have been one or two other issues that have been dealt with but I will ask the Secretary General to review what was said on that day and to compile a full report, bringing all of the responses together so that we can deal with them. If that does not happen, we can set up a separate meeting where he can be asked to deal with each of the specific issues raised and to give his reply here, on the record. I am proposing that we set that out for the Secretary General so that he is clear about our intention to seek the clarification we need to make up our minds about what happened. Is that agreed?
