I propose to take Questions 1, 2 and 3 together. The information asked for in each question is being compiled and will be sent to the Deputy as soon as possible.

Can the Minister say if that information will be published in the Official Report?

If the Deputy desires to get it, it will be made available for him. Does the Deputy want it published in the Official Report?

I would like that.

The information might not be available for this week's Official Report.

I am quite satisfied as long as there is a record of it.
