I have never heard of appendices being written by Attorneys General to legal documents adopted by the Dáil and neither has Deputy Martin.

That would be a wholly inappropriate approach. We have the terms of reference and the categorical assurance that they will cover the issues of concern raised by Deputies. These are legitimate public interest concerns and it is right that we have an investigation. We have appointed a judge who will do this. All of the documentation provided by Deputy Doherty or others will be provided to the judge who has the authority confirmed by the Attorney General to pursue these issues and to satisfy the public as to how these were handled.
