There is a payment of the order of €600,000 of taxpayers' money to go to the charity or the organisation that looked after Grace. That is taxpayers' money and is 100% within our remit. The issue of the commission is a different issue. The €600,000 is very much within our remit and is public money. Therefore, we are inviting both people. We will have the report by tomorrow from the Garda Síochána and one way or another they are invited for next Thursday, time to be agreed between the Office of the Comptroller and Auditor General and their office. We will write to Mr. Tony O'Brien requesting a copy of this report by tomorrow evening and for him to be present next Thursday. Both meetings could be very short. If they are co-operating and following through on the public commitments, they will be very short meetings. If they are not short, it is their call. Given the previous evidence given by the two persons involved, we want them to explain why we have not received the information they promised in public that we would receive.
