Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)

I have three or four brief questions. Will the Minister ask the Government Whip to arrange a debate and a vote on the services directive and a debate on the Lisbon Agenda? The Joint Committee on European Affairs discussed it and produced a document, but the House has not debated it. Will Minister also arrange for a debate on the proposed Stability and Growth Pact reforms? Will he also ensure that we have a debate on UN reform well in advance of the adoption of any EU Common Position on it? What are the Minister's plans for making the process of UN reform inclusive of the views of the people?
