Ms Eileen Creedon:

I do not know. We give legal advice to the Department. As to how it deals with that advice internally and at what levels it takes various decisions, I am not sure, but I echo what Mr. O'Daly said. We give legal advice to the Department and it it takes that advice and make its decision on it. I am sure these decisions are taken at different levels, depending on the different decisions to be made. The Department would have to speak about that; I would not be able to be categorical about it.
