Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I have had time to reflect on it. I heard the arguments the Deputy made and saw the letter she sent to me. The Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Flanagan, and I have reflected on and discussed this and we agree that the Deputy is correct. Therefore, we are going to commission an independent senior counsel to carry out the review into why the emails were not sent to the tribunal. We expect to be able to release the name of the person who will carry out that review in the next couple days.
