The committee chairman, Mr Jim Mitchell, has been overseeing work on the report since the hearings into the non-payment of DIRT tax on bogus non-resident accounts ended last month.

The six members of the DIRT Inquiry team agreed the structure and issues relevant to their report on a working weekend recently and have met for several full days.
