Brian Lenihan Jnr (Dublin West, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy is not listening. I said I do not see how it would be necessary for it to be in private. I am open and will ask the Chief Whip to prepare the necessary resolution. The terms of reference can be discussed between the Whips. I have also included a provision at a later stage for appointment to the audit committee of a Member of the Oireachtas, if the Opposition parties are so minded. I know some Members have reservations about this and I understand that.
