John Brady (Wicklow, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Sorry Chair, I do not accept that. We as a committee have a duty and an obligation to find out why the media had an important piece of correspondence before this committee did. I accept the Chair or the secretariat did not have this letter before the media did. I accept that point. Somebody in Fine Gael leaked this important letter to the media before it made its way to this committee. It is incumbent on the Chair to find out how that happened and why it happened. I am asking him as Chair to write to the Business Committee and find out how and why that letter was leaked to the media before it made its way to us as an Oireachtas committee. I am asking the Chair and calling on other members-----
