"2. If so, whether the Appellate Court properly determined that the application to the panel of judges and the panel of judges' order of an investigation into the commission of a crime, may be disclosed as a part of the grand jury's investigation?

"3. If so, whether the ``public interest' that the Appellate Court directed the panel of judges to evaluate on remand refers to the policy interest in grand jury privacy or the policy interest in public disclosure?"
