I would beg to differ but I will not discuss the matter in detail now. There are inherent difficulties with the system of direct provision as it is set up. I refer to the fact that it is a privatised system and that there is lack of oversight in respect of it. There are many issues which arise in the context of direct provision but we will not discuss them now because they are not particularly relevant to this debate. Will the Minister indicate what type of role the Irish Human Rights and Equality Commission might play in the context of direct provision?
