I propose an amendment to the Order of Business that the Taoiseach or the Minister come to the House today to explain and clarify the Government's attitude to and policy on rural Ireland, not only on this issue. It is long past time that the Government was brought to account for the measures it has taken in the past three years. As has been explained by my colleague, Senator Marc MacSharry, it is totally unacceptable and the Government will reap the whirlwind on 23 May.
