Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour)

As I said to the Deputy, the part of the report given to me was provided in confidence by the International Energy Agency. The particular caveat entered reads:

For the internal use of the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources only. No external transmission, disclosure, re-publication, reproduction or other use of this publication or any portion thereof may be made without the prior written approval of the IEA.

The total review is to be concluded by mid-year. I cannot think of any reason the report would not be published in full.
