The report was laid before the Dáil on 5 December 2000. The provisions of the Courts of Justice (District Court) Act 1946 under which this inquiry took place specify that the Judge who conducted the inquiry shall report the result to the Minister upon conclusion of the investigation or inquiry. There was no requirement for a Dáil debate and Judge Murphy's report dealt fully with the issues in question.
