Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Cabinet made a clear decision to set up a commission of investigation. It did so in the context of the advice of the Attorney General who does not advise the Ceann Comhairle. The Attorney General advises the Government. The Government made its decision and the terms of reference are there dealing with the outcome of the investigation into certain matters in the Cavan-Monaghan area, arising from the Guerin report. The notification was sent yesterday by e-mail from the Whip's Office to all of the other Whips and they chose not to follow that through.
