I thank the Minister of State. At least that would provide some link for a person viewing the details of the determination and lead them to look to the High Court or Circuit Court decision under the present system. My essential point is that if somebody is looking at determinations by the appeal commissioners in a public forum online, they should be able to see the full picture, as the Minister of State noted, instead of having to look at a number of different sources and trying to trace it through the system. I take the point that it is not straightforward because the appeal commissioners may not necessarily be a party to or be notified of the final decision. I have made the Minister of State aware of the point.
