Following on from what Deputy Finian McGrath and other members have said, we often meet people and they will start off by saying: "I am not racist but ..." and off they go. This is definitely a matter of concern. Are there any campaigns or programmes active in the Minister of State's Department to highlight these issues or to combat racism?
