Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

There is nothing in the information supplied to me to indicate that anything relating to the Dublin and Monaghan bombings was withheld in this tranche of material. The Deputy would have to put down a specific question for me to be able to answer with accuracy on issues relating to that important matter. As I said earlier, to my recollection I did not have any involvement, good, bad or indifferent, in deciding what should be released.
