The Chairman should get the clarification and, I suggest, ask why, a statement of claim having been served, the Department has not lodged a defence, where matters stand and whether the committee has a role. I asked Mr. Carville the last day what the Department's position was on the formal recommendation of this committee in its report in January on the establishment of a committee of inspection. He was not in a position to answer that. As such, it is a reasonable question to ask now.
