Mr. Kevin McCarthy:

The exercise that I referred to is ongoing at the moment. It is a partnership exercise involving members of the programme board who represent the NGO sector and residents of direct provision centres and, obviously, the relevant Departments. The intention is to agree revised plans that can be signed off on by the programme board and presented to the Government before the end of the year.
