The audit announced in October 2005 by the HSE has been completed in relation to all but one Catholic diocese. The report on that diocese is expected in the next few days. When that report has been received the overall reports of the audit from the HSE will be further considered by myself, and will enable me to decide what actions I will take in the matter. This will include consideration of the publication of the reports (which are currently subject to the deliberative process).
