Mr. Peter Feeney:

I will answer that first, if the Senator does not mind. I completely agree with him. We made a submission to that. There were 50 other significant submissions made. The report is finished and people who were on the commission that looked into it are frustrated it has not been published.

I read, although I do not know whether it is accurate, it is in part to do with the funding of public service broadcasting. If that is what is holding it up, there are many other issues which that commission was dealing with that need to get out in public.

It diminishes the value of inquiries if you do not publish the results of them. That is a generalisation but it is absolutely the case. There is no point in having an inquiry if you do not publish the outcome. I hope that it is published as soon as possible.
