Insofar as the Report of the Moriarty Tribunal made recommendations concerning the future operation of tribunals of inquiry, many of these recommendations are anticipated by the Tribunals of Inquiry Bill 2005 which awaits Report Stage debate in the Dáil. Other recommendations are the subject of consultation with the Attorney General and other relevant Departments.

I am also informed by the Garda authorities that their examination of the Report of the Moriarty Tribunal remains ongoing. The Deputy will appreciate that it would therefore be inappropriate for me to comment further on this aspect at this time.
