The OPR was established by Government, which operates independently and sets up checks and balances. It is a proactive measure. The NPF is on a statutory footing, but it remains the view of Government that policy is set down by Government.

Under the NPF, the review involves extensive public consultation, including with the Oireachtas. I know it has been debated at length as I kept an eye on proceedings last night. Our position remains unchanged.
