Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

Is the Taoiseach aware of how unhappy the Justice for the Forgotten group is at the fact there was little discussion or substantive investigation into what is contained in the report with reference to the man in the Four Courts Hotel? Is he aware that any evidence available to the State was made available in this regard? Will the Taoiseach comment on whether it is a State security matter?

The subcommittee which dealt with the Barron report last November recommended an Oireachtas debate should take place on collusion referred to in the report. Obviously, it would have been preferable if that debate had taken place before the election but that did not happen for whatever reason. Is that a matter to which the Taoiseach will give consideration in the future?

In regard to his comments about continual interaction with the British authorities, a matter we have raised on many occasions, is the Taoiseach happy that they have supplied all the information they can in respect of this matter? Has he spoken to the Prime Minister, Mr. Brown, since his appointment as British Prime Minister, on the issue of whether there are outstanding documents or material that could be provided by the British authorities in order to bring this matter to a final conclusion?
