I can only see two "Prime Time" appearances for the Minister in almost four years, prior to last Thursday. Given that the Minister was on the verge of something really huge, did she not think that it was not the time to go ahead? By the way, there was plenty to fill the programme. There was the Kerry drugs bust and the Console issue, among others. The makers of "Prime Time" were not stuck for material. The Minister had only appeared on the programme twice in almost four years. Why did the Minister think it was necessary to go on last Thursday night?
