The point is that we think those matters, the plan of action set out by the Government, should be discussed and scrutinised in this House. We are certainly not happy with it. I want to register that last week in the all-party Oireachtas Joint Committee on Health we asked Mr. Tony O'Brien direct questions about figures on the accuracy and detection of smear tests in the different labs. It was first said that the results could not be given to us. Then it was said the results would be referred to as A, B and C. Finally, Mr. O'Brien said that we would be given the figures. We still have not seen them. The Government is saying that will all be dealt with by the scoping inquiry and the commission of investigation-----
