Olwyn Enright (Laois-Offaly, Fine Gael)

It seems we are talking about two different groups. How does the mortgage interest supplement review group and the Minister and her Department fit into the interdepartmental group which was announced by the Minister for Communications, Energy and Natural Resources, Deputy Eamon Ryan? I would assume the Minister is a member of that group rather than her officials as it is a high level group involving Ministers. How does this process fit in and when will that group report? April is still two months away. I am concerned that this will be held up while we are waiting for the mortgage interest supplement review which has been going on now since the Minister has been in power.
