I would envisage difficulty with the committee's questioning and interrogation of the Grant Thornton report in that it is currently redacted and the names of people are anonymous so we do not know who knew what or who is referenced in the report. An enormous amount of time will be taken up with person 1, person 2, person 3 and the 26 different people involved. If the committee is extending its remit and oversight on the issue of "Toy Show The Musical", would it not be in our interest to seek an unredacted publication of this report, especially if it was initiated by RTÉ? We should request an unredacted document in preparation for our engagement, especially if the committee gives us approval to seek oversight in this regard.

I concur with the Cathaoirleach and Deputy Catherine Murphy regarding the list of invitees. It will again be immensely frustrating if we do not have key witnesses in front of us. We will certainly hold our breath to see who comes before the committee. For us to issue a report into the findings, arrive at conclusions and make recommendations, it is critical that those who were involved are here. Otherwise it becomes difficult to establish.
