Shane Ross (Dublin Rathdown, Independent) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Troy is quite right I am in a position to publish the report if I wish to and if I thought it was wise. I think it would be extraordinarily foolish in light of what the Deputy has already heard to publish this report having referred it to the Attorney General. It is absolutely incumbent on me to seek the advice of the Attorney General when we receive correspondence of that sort. It is, however, my intention and my wish to publish it and I am not in any way hesitating to do so, I am just taking what I think is a prudent course so that we should not in any way affect things which will happen on the other side of the world.

Did the Deputy ask have we received any information from the Brazilian lawyer suggesting we do not publish the report?
