Order of Business

Colm Burke (Fine Gael)
An allegation was made that the Government consulted with the Attorney General during negotiations. Of course the Attorney General was involved in consultations on any matter involving a treaty at all times. It is part of the role of the Attorney General to give legal advice in any negotiations. To suggest that the role of the Attorney General was misused is a little rich.
