Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

On the other point raised by Deputy Gilmore, I understand the Moriarty tribunal may be in touch with the Oireachtas. I am not aware of any interim report being prepared. The tribunal chairman will probably outline to us what his plans are to progress matters, depending on what timeframe might be involved. We shall see what emerges in that regard but I do not have any knowledge of an interim report coming forward.
