I would refer Senator Gavan to the Oireachtas Joint Committee on Public Service Oversight and Petitions which held hearings and heard from witnesses during the last Oireachtas. I might be wrong but I think Deputy Tóibín chaired the committee, although it might have been Senator Mac Lochlainn. I cannot remember. It was one or the other. I think Senator Mac Lochlainn chaired it. I would be happy to have a debate. There has been a lot of protestation by Senator Gavan about that and I would be very clear about that. Where I would join with Senator Gavan is with regard to the condemnation of the bombings and the killing of people in Yemen. There can be no ambiguity in our expression of, not just outrage and solidarity, but also condemnation and the need to see a resolution-----
