I propose to take Questions Nos. 589 and 592 together.
In accordance with the VHI Acts, the VHI is required to submit its Annual Report and Accounts to the Minister, and I as Minister am required to lay the Annual Report and Accounts before the Oireachtas; the relevant legislation does not make provision for a specific time frame for so laying the Annual Report and Accounts. The VHI's 2012 Annual Report and Accounts have been submitted and I have now made arrangements for them to be laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas.
