Thank you. We had a meeting with Tusla here some time ago. The officials are well aware of it. An issue of concern was raised relating to private companies hiring unvetted workers. I do not want Mr. McCarthy to provide information on that, but he is obviously well aware of it and it is of deep concern. Will he provide documentation relating to correspondence between the Department and Tusla on this matter from the time it became known to the Department? Will all communication between the Department and Tusla on this specific issue, and details of any meetings officials or the Minister had with Tusla since this broke, be provided in writing?

I will come back in for a second time, but I will raise issues in respect of IPAS and those seeking temporary protection. As I understand that, there are two lines of responsibility within the Department. One relates to IPAS under Mr. Delaney and the other relates to Ukrainian refugees under Ms Rooney. Is that correct?
