I also welcome No. 2 and I agree with previous speakers that we should not wait three months before discussing the contents of the important report being published today, particularly since it has already been suggested that the extent of information or co-operation from the British side was not complete. If that is stated to be the case, it would be an important matter that must be discussed and given a public airing. I presume the same motion will come before the other House. It is important that Members of this House are given the earliest possible opportunity to comment on that report, to lend support to the families of those affected by the Dublin and Monaghan bombings and to attempt to give closure to the matter.

In light of Senator Quinn's comments on the National Nutrition Surveillance Centre survey on health, I suggest the Leader put it to the Minister for Health and Children that decentralisation could be good for one's health.
