Yes, I thank the Leas-Chathaoirleach for his assistance. That is the point I was going to make. This matter has been ongoing for seven and a half years and during almost all of that time I have been raising it issue consistently in the House. It is a very long time but the Minister has just announced the appointment of Judge Gerard Haughton to conduct a scoping exercise into matters surrounding this case. The O'Farrell family is extremely unhappy about this because the matter has been ongoing for seven and a half years. The family has been consistently pushing and pushing and at last, seemed to be getting somewhere. The Dáil passed a resolution which is the same as the resolution on today's Order Paper, which is in my name. It gives the full details of the case and calls for an independent inquiry. I ask the Leader to provide time for a discussion on this situation-----
