Okay. The Office of the Attorney General has provided an impressive number of legal advices on requests relating to Private Members' Bills and so on. Given how the Houses of the Oireachtas are configured at present with a minority Government and the increase in Bills from the Opposition which require advice, does the Taoiseach believe that the Office of the Attorney General is sufficiently resourced to deal with the current demands from the Houses and the Government?
