Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

That is the situation as has been outlined to date. The Director of Public Prosecutions made some comments on this matter in recent times. I understand the Minister for Justice and Law Reform, Deputy Ahern, spoke to the Law Society recently about measures to be taken with regard to white-collar crime, which did not relate specifically to whistleblower legislation. I am not aware that there has been a change in terms of moving to an omnibus Bill, but I will check for the Deputy.
