It is 800 pages long. Any normal person would probably need to read it overnight or, better still, over the weekend, so any opinions on it can be informed and any questions on it can be intelligent. Of course the Taoiseach will be available in the House next Tuesday to answer questions in the normal course of events. There will be a debate on the report of the Fennelly commission and it is a matter for the Business Committee to decide when this will be. I do not think anything will change over the next couple of days that should not allow us to have time, for once, to actually read a report before we express opinions on it and come up with intelligent questions that can be asked at that point to the Taoiseach and the relevant authorities.
