Very well. I will ask two supplementaries if I can, but there was a third element to my questioning. Leaving aside what is recommended in the Commission on the Future of Policing in Ireland report, what is the Commissioner's understanding of his current responsibilities in intelligence terms? I accept absolutely that the Commissioner has undertaken his obligations and oath in the fullest integrity and comprehensively. However, it remains the case that he is bound by both Acts on an ongoing basis. Is that correct?
