I apologise to both Ministers and their teams. There are various debates happening and I had to run up to the Dáil Chamber. At the outset, I wish them the best in their briefs. There is nothing new for either of them, but I said on local radio recently that I think they are both people of great integrity and intellect. I know it is a weird thing to say, but I am particularly impressed with how they engage with the Opposition. They are both calm characters. They do not get drawn into mudslinging and answer respectfully. They engage with sectors.
