I concur what has been said. We ought to communicate to Mr. Cuddihy that we regard this as an important petition but the committee may not be the vehicle to deal with the issues arising because of the nature of the petition. Perhaps a discussion with his local representatives and the Minister may be useful. In our reply to Mr. Cuddihy we need to thank him for his petition. It is important that petitions of this nature are brought forward so that we can study them and ascertain whether public policy issues can be addressed. We should convey to him that we take on board the sentiment of what he wrote but believe the issues would be better addressed through another vehicle.
