It did not have my approval. I did not find out about it until later that day or the day after. I cannot remember exactly when. However, there was no consultation with me on it at all. When I heard what had occurred, I was not happy. I felt Deputy Harty, as Chairman, was put in the invidious position of defending a report that had been agreed not only by the Government parties but, I think, by the main opposition party, only to have it unwind itself on the floor of the Dáil. I do not think that is the way for us to conduct our business and have advised Ministers that I do not want it to ever happen again.
