I refer the Deputy to my Reply to Parliamentary Question No. 289 of Tuesday, 24 February 2009, which sets out the position in this matter. As indicated therein, a key element in the White Paper process will be the production of a series of discussion documents designed to stimulate and structure the debate on relevant topics. I can confirm that the first in the series will be published shortly.
