I will ask again what the Minister raised with the Secretary of State. He keeps saying he raised the concerns that we raised, but what concerns did he raise? I am not asking for him to repeat into the record the details or anything like that, but did he request the extension of the Pitchford inquiry to include Ireland? Did he ask or wonder about what on earth undercover British police officers were doing in this State? When I raised the question of the Minister making a statement on that, he suggested he had made a statement. I checked the website and in the statement about the Minister's meeting, there is no reference to the British undercover police operation here or to the Pitchford inquiry. Therefore, has the Minister made a statement like the Taoiseach said he would make after that meeting?
