It is disingenuous of the Minister to cherry-pick which reports he sees fit to have carried out. We are supposed to be in a democracy here. The Minister and his Fine Gael colleagues are constantly speaking about the need to live up to the democratic principles in this State. It is up to us as Deputies to decide on the amendments we want to agree and the reports we want to see carried out. I do not want to get into a big debate about this.
