That is not the format we want. Many Members of the Opposition are talking about this particular inquiry as if the scoping has actually happened and as if the terms of reference are in place. They are not. That is going to take place over the coming time and it is important that people do not prejudice the scoping.

The second portion is the commission of inquiry and if people refer to the legislation governing the commission, they will find that there are particular regulations in place in that regard. It is important we look at those and the Green Party is very committed that as much information as possible should come into the public domain. In fact, all the information from the inquiry has to come into the public domain. Members of the Opposition are incorrect who say there will be no public element to this at all. There will, of course, be a public element to this.
