Okay. If there was a security review at the Áras, given how someone was able to drive through the gates last week and go to the President's office to say "Hello", and the Commissioner's analysis called for additional security, would that request be forwarded by the Office of the President to the Minister for Justice and Equality for appraisal and how would it be signed off on? Do the cumulative departmental expenses have to be approved by the Cabinet?
