I am sure Deputy Adams is as interested as everyone else that transparency and accountability be had right across the board in respect of all charities. The regulatory authority will be in place by Easter. The Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform sanctioned the appointment of an interim chief executive officer. That position will be filled by the end of February. One of the early priorities will be the publication of a statutory register of charities, so people will know what is involved. That will obviously have its own implementation to bring about transparency and accountability.
