I am advised by the military authorities that the investigation into the matters referred to has recently concluded and I expect to receive a full report shortly. In order to afford due process and fair procedures to any people who may be the subject of this investigation, and to ensure the outcome of the investigation or any follow-up action that may arise as a result of it are not prejudiced in any way, the Deputy will appreciate that it would be inappropriate for me to comment any further at this point.
