Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

My basic point to Deputies on all these sort of matters is that as soon as the Government receives these reports and considers them it makes decisions on their publication. We have seen the publication of Commission on Taxation reports in the past. I envisage that would be the case again in the future since it adds to the debate but the Government has to receive these reports, formally accept them and then arrange for whatever way it is to be disseminated. We must take it step by step.
