Mr. Mark Smyth:

Ministers pass the buck. One says we need to contact another and when we contact that Minister we are told we need to talk to somebody else. Eventually we got back to the Minister, Deputy Donnelly, whose response was that his diary is full. We also wrote to the Taoiseach about the fact that each Minister has said it is not their responsibility. So far nobody has taken responsibility. The Taoiseach's response was to thank us for the correspondence. In three years of engagement on this and highlighting this issue we have had no direct engagement with the Government on it.
