My Department has sought legal advice from the Office of the Attorney General with regard to publishing the report referred to by the Deputy. Pending further consideration of the matter by the Office of the Attorney General, the Department has been advised against publication of the report either in full or in an edited format. In the circumstances, it would be inappropriate to make comment further on the detail of the report at this time.
