Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

I appreciate that, but I am asking the Taoiseach, as the leader of Government, because this is a hugely important issue. It is not merely a line Minister issue. This is the Information Commissioner outlining repeatedly concerns about a number of functions and responsibilities that have been moved outside of the freedom of information cover. There was at no time advice, engagement or consultation up to the announcement itself. Where does the Taoiseach believe his office and position as head of the Cabinet can intervene to ensure this anomaly is addressed so that the Information Commissioner's role can be respected and fully engaged with?
