- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: I thank Dr. Lawlor. Dr. Geoffrey Shannon, the former special rapporteur on child protection, has said any review must be independent, prompt, effective and transparent. Ian Elliott is currently working on his report into the historic abuse in the Catholic Boy Scouts of Ireland, CBSI, and the Scout Association of Ireland, SAI. How independent can his review be, as someone who was formerly...

Anne Rabbitte: Will the report Mr. Elliott is doing be put in the public domain or is it for Scouting Ireland?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: Specifically, will the learning review be put into the public domain? I accept Mr. Tennant has said it will be given to the Minister, but will we have access to it?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: My question is whether it will be put in the public domain.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: All right. That is okay. Are there any people involved in the broader review team that have been in positions where they were the recipients of allegations of abuse?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: I refer to the broader review team.

Anne Rabbitte: Mr. Elliott did not just go in and pick up the files and sit down in a room all on his own. He would have conferred with people and asked people for signposting and direction.

Anne Rabbitte: Dr. Lawlor is not answering my question.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: I will read it again. Are there any people involved in the broader review team that have been in positions where they were the recipients of allegations of abuse?

Anne Rabbitte: What was the case before Mr. Begley arrived?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: Yes. I am sorry, I have strayed. I do not wish to stray.

Anne Rabbitte: My question is about the broader review team.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: I am not part of the broader review team so the witnesses must help me to understand.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: Are there any people involved in the broader review team that have been in positions where they were the recipients of allegations of abuse? It is a "Yes" or a "No". I do not wish to delve or stray or to put people in awkward positions.

Anne Rabbitte: I think it should be Deputy Neville.

Anne Rabbitte: Earlier on, Deputy Sherlock asked a question, and it is the same question that has gone around for the last number of months and years. From figures circulating in the media, we note that 321 alleged victims and 247 alleged perpetrators have been identified. I would have contacted Scouting Ireland myself back in October out of pure and utter frustration, because we were waiting to find a...

Anne Rabbitte: Before I ask Mr. Begley to expand on that answer, I would like him to tease out something else first. We know the legacy figure since 2012 from the two other organisations. Of the 660 files received from 2012 to 2019, how many are still open? Our guests clearly stated in their opening statement what is reportable. How many of the files were reportable and not reportable?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs: Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion (4 Dec 2019)
Anne Rabbitte: That is the crux of the conversation with Scouting Ireland. What defines "historical" and "current"? Two different conversations are taking place. "Current" refers to people who are currently in the organisation or who have children, leaders or board members therein. That has been the definition of "current" since 2012, when Scouting Ireland started. It is not historical. I am well...
