I propose to take Questions Nos. 211 and 212 together.

The items referred to in the Deputy's questions are matters for consideration by the military court of inquiry to which I have referred in previous replies to the House on this incident. The court of inquiry will be held following completion of the civil legal action which has been initiated.
