At least that is accepted. In order that the witnesses will know, I have asked that the Comptroller and Auditor General's office would furnish this committee with a report on what exactly were the obligations of An Garda Síochána in regard to compliance with its Act and also with reporting to its office. I am also asking Mr. Ó Cualáin could he, on behalf of the organisation, furnish this committee with a report on what were the roles and responsibilities of individuals within An Garda Síochána to report to the Comptroller and Auditor General's office or up to the Commissioner, and then of the Commissioner in regard to reporting to the Comptroller and Auditor General's office. That does not seem to be clear. I can see clear breakdowns either in communication or with people deliberately not doing what they were meant to do, and we will deal with all of that. I would ask for a brief report on that.
