I welcome the Minister and thank her for presentation. I would like to focus on the operational review that was carried out in October or November 2016. Dr. Niall Muldoon, the Ombudsman for Children, appeared at our previous meeting to discuss the review. He said that it was like working in a vacuum because the review had not been published. Who made the decision not to publish?
