I can give a positive answer to the first request as it will be better this year. I will not publish any document because I do not have a document. I was briefed by officials working in extremely difficult circumstances because like everybody else, their income has been reduced and their workload has been increased. I am not looking for people to scapegoat. I am the person to be scapegoated and I am here in front of the Deputy. I will take whatever steps are necessary to ensure we improve the service but I am not in the business of looking for scapegoats in the Department. I am proud to be there and I am proud of the work and the loyalty given to the Department of Education and Skills.
