I want to ask about the terms of reference for the commission of investigation into the case of Grace, the young woman with intellectual disabilities at the centre of foster home abuse allegations. The report by senior counsel, Conor Dignam, was published on Tuesday. It makes for disturbing reading. When will the terms of reference for the commission be brought to the Dáil? When does the Government intend to appoint the chair of the commission?
A Leas-Cheann Comhairle, the reason I did not indicate was because I understood it was the custom to go to whoever was in the party leaders' slot. That is how your colleague conducts business.
