Not only did I answer, as the Deputy rightly pointed out, on the Order of Business on Tuesday, but there was also a very lengthy Topical Issue Debate where the entire debacle was discussed by me and Deputy Thomas Pringle on Tuesday evening. The Secretary General, the head of the IT department and the assistant secretary were in front of the Joint Committee on Employment Affairs and Social Protection this morning, so all of the information is in the public domain. Last week was not the first time there was an attempt to rectify this situation, as was laid out in full this morning in the statement issued to the committee. I can put it on the website so the Deputy can have access to it.

To answer the questions, the independent review has been commissioned and a gentleman from the Revenue Commissioners is conducting that review for me. I would expect to have it before Christmas and it will be published as soon as I get it.
