We have tried to outline the process by which we are going to respond to what Deputy Barrett said earlier in terms of the mid-year expenditure report and publication of the taxation papers. The main constraint we have is from an input point of view, that if we share that information with the Oireachtas, we want to be confident it will not change. Even in my early weeks in the Department, in trying to look at how we will manage this process with the Oireachtas, that is a key factor, but obviously all this has to take place within the constitutional architecture.
