I propose to take Questions Nos. 99 and 100 together.
The information on the number of reports of studies which have been commissioned by me or my Department in the period since I took office has been provided in my reply to Question No. 33 of 19 February, 1997 — Vol. 475, No. 2, Col. 437.
As indicated in that reply much of the work was undertaken to provide a service, conduct polls etc. and no formal report was required. Accordingly, the Keegan report was the one report made public. It was placed in the Oireachtas Library on 28 February 1995.
The contents of the QMP and MRBI work in relation to the Divorce Referendum was not published because it related to internal policy matters. It was, however divulged for the information of the courts in the course of both the McKenna High Court and Supreme Court case and the Hanafin High Court and Supreme Court case.
The Summary Report on the Evaluation of the Pilot Childcare (1994-95) Initiative was published on 7 February 1997.
