I agree that what happened in 2012 was alarming. As I said, a lot of changes have been made to the ODCE. The new director has made a lot of internal changes, and it can be seen from the results that they have done a lot of good work, carrying out their duties and ensuring that people are held to account and brought to justice for wrongdoings in the area of corporate governance etc.

I cannot publish the entire report, as the Deputy knows. I will be publishing an account of the failures, and of course we will look at those and make sure that whatever the issues are, they are dealt with. I can assure the Deputy of that. As I said, increased funding has been provided, and I do not believe it is an issue of funding now. It is important that the ODCE finds and attracts the right person, because they do very technical work. We are supporting it with additional resources in every way that we can.
