James Bannon (Fine Gael)

Can the Leader inform the House or find out when the report of the Barr tribunal will be published? The tribunal was established in 2002 to investigate the circumstances surrounding the death of John Carthy at Abbeylara, County Longford. I understand that it was signed off on in early 2005 and we were informed the report would be before the House by 1 November 2005. Why is there a delay? Could the Leader determine when the report will be before the Houses of the Oireachtas? The circumstances surrounding John Carthy's death were tragic and approximately 169 witnesses were interviewed regarding the case. There is public concern about the issue. Six years have passed and we should have the report as soon as possible.
