I want to mention this to the Deputy. I have been very clear on this. An Garda Síochána has said that the matters outlined in the KOSI report are central to its investigation and those of the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement. Making the report public could have serious implications for any criminal proceedings. We have all been very conscious of that all day. In fairness to Mr. Treacy, we have to be consistent on this to protect the integrity of the report and to avoid compromising anything the Garda may do in this regard. That is the truth.
