According to Mr. Keegan's script, Dublin City Council brought 11 instances to the attention of the Garda. Given the lack of a robust procedure to follow up on such submissions, not to seek fees from people, but to ensure their validity, Mr. Keogan cannot, with any level of confidence, stand over taking the decision he took on the basis of the submissions. That is my strong view, and I strongly suggest the council remedy the situation without undue delay.

I was struck by an expression Mr. Keegan used in an earlier answer to Deputy Dooley when he said if he granted permission for four as against five, at least the message would have gone out that he had not "sold out". I want Mr. Keegan to explain what he meant by it. Was it his concern that residents might see him as a public figure "selling out"?
