Nobody doubts the importance of this issue. The Dáil has been back for two weeks and this is the third engagement I will have had on the issue. I will have my fourth later today in the Seanad. The Government was discussing this issue until the end of July while the Cabinet was still meeting. The Cabinet met again at the beginning of September. The Deputy knows that Deputies are not on holidays in August. Those remarks only undermine politicians in general.
