-----and the Taoiseach has indicated that a commission of investigation will be established following the recommendations of the report. Does the Taoiseach then intend to have a full debate on the report in the House next week? He indicated that time would be made available for a comprehensive debate on it. Will the Taoiseach confirm whether that is the order in which the Government intends to deal with this? Will he indicate why he did not consult with leaders of the Opposition, given the gravity of what has unfolded and given the fact that prior to this there was a degree of engagement between us on the issues - albeit in a bona fide way - in the context of the establishment of the Guerin commission? These questions concern the timeframe. I appreciate that the Taoiseach may say there are legal reasons he cannot deal with the Guerin report today and therefore we cannot debate it today. I presume that is why he suggested there are items for redaction and so on. Is that the position?
