Yesterday a very long and detailed report by the Garda Síochána Inspectorate was published. Will the Taoiseach make Government time available for a comprehensive debate on that report? Given the similarities of much of that report's contents, the dossier from the whistleblower, Sergeant Maurice McCabe, and the Guerin report, when will the commission of inquiry, which Mr. Guerin recommended and the Taoiseach confirmed six months ago would happen, be established? When does the Taoiseach expect the Fennelly report to come through?

The Taoiseach has confirmed that next week there will be certainty and clarity about water charges. Can he again confirm to the House that he will allocate time to debate what is going on in order that the House will have some input into that? At that stage the Taoiseach might cover the issue of house insurance and the implications of that. Every week something new emerges in this debacle.

I thank the Deputy for his questions. We have a duty to reflect the dedication and commitment of so many men and women in An Garda Síochána in carrying out their duty, often in very difficult circumstances. Eighty-six members have died in the course of their duty in protecting our citizens from criminal intent and other serious matters. Of course, time will be allocated for discussion of the Garda Síochána Inspectorate report, as the Minister has made clear in her response to it.

The findings of Mr. Guerin's report in respect of the area he had reviewed in particular districts are reflected in the Garda Síochána Inspectorate report as being similar to what has happened - or what has not happened - nationwide. The terms of reference for Guerin will published and brought to Cabinet next week. Mr. Justice Fennelly is carrying out his work. Obviously, he has indicated to me that he may need some extra time in respect of the body of work he has to do. I responded that I would look favourably at the question of an extension when he submits that. He is also looking at bringing forward a subsection of that at an earlier time. I have formally requested that he so do. I cannot give any indication as to when the judge will finish his work. That is strictly and utterly a matter for Mr. Justice Fennelly and his commission.

I can confirm certainty and clarity will be brought about in regard to the contributions on water next week. I would expect there will be a motion before the Dáil and discussions during Dáil time on Thursday and Friday of next week.
