It is my understanding that a file that had been delivered to the Minister's Office during September 2014 was misplaced within the Office. The file was searched for by members of the staff of the Office of the then Minister and was found after a period of time among other papers, where it had been inadvertently placed. Accordingly, the matter was not reported to An Garda Síochána as there was no security incident.

As the contents of the file concerned planning and local government matters, the matter was not reported to the Taoiseach or others in Government.
