My final questions relate to correspondence sent to the Minister, Deputy Charles Flanagan, and circulated to several Deputies by Justice for Magdalenes, the Irish Council for Civil Liberties and several other organisations. Mr. Tyndall's recommendations strongly emphasised the need to write to all women affected to inform them of developments in the case, the report and, in particular, the duration of stay and such issues. If the report is to be implemented, it is important that all those affected be informed expeditiously and comprehensively. Does Mr. Tyndall wish to comment in that regard?
