I do not meant to be political but the Taoiseach has a habit of making commitments. He did it on CervicalCheck when he said no woman would have to go to court, despite having no legal basis to make that commitment. He has done exactly the same in this regard. If it is just to bounce the issue into the future, it is wholly inadequate. If it is the case that the terms of reference will not do that, we must also consider what we need to do to fix an utterly flawed process. That may well involve inviting Mr. Robert Watt of the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform to appear before the committee.
