I propose to take Questions Nos. 191, 192 and 194 to 199, inclusive, together.

The papers concerned were not stolen or removed from my office without authorisation, but were inadvertently placed with other papers and were subsequently found after a period of time.  Accordingly, no Garda or other inquiry was required.

I have received correspondence in relation to the complaints referred to, which is being considered. A reply will be issued in due course.
