Last week on Leaders' Question, I raised with the Taoiseach the work of the four British undercover police officers whom we know of who operated in this State. They are Mark Kennedy, Jim Boyling, Mark Jenner and John Dines. I raised the need for the Irish Government to join the Scottish, German and Northern Irish Governments in seeking the extension of the Pitchford inquiry to include the operations of those undercover officers in this State. The Taoiseach said the Minister, Deputy Charles Flanagan, would raise it with James Brokenshire last week and would issue a statement, which still has not been issued. Have we made any progress on this?
