I understand that, but I would like the Leader to indicate when the report will be dealt with in the Seanad which is not sitting next week. It vindicates the whistleblowers involved in the context of the considerable service they have done the State. I have been particularly struck by the public's reaction to the report and its core sense of justice in respect of the issue to which it relates. I was approached by one woman who asked me to put it to the House and the Leader that the President should award medals to the whistleblowers for their pursuit of truth and justice. I would like the Leader to convey that woman's request to the relevant persons.

I ask the Cathaoirleach to afford me some latitude, particularly as I have waited a long time to contribute.
