It could be the Minister of State, Deputy McHugh. Responsibility for this issue rests in so many areas, that the report might be lost somewhere between the various Departments. One would imagine that in this year of all years, the Government could find the report and at least create a roadmap to implement its findings instead of making the very obvious statement of fact that there are technical and legal issues with extending the voting rights, which is like saying that when the sun shines it can be hot. That is not a reason for things not to happen, three years after the Convention on the Constitution.
