Bernard Allen (Cork North Central, Fine Gael)

I heard the Minister of State say clearly that no decision was made about the referendum. I want him to give me a "yes" or "no" answer as to whether there will be a referendum in Ireland or whether the people will have an opportunity, after a period of reflection on the results of the French and Dutch referenda, to have their say. Will the Taoiseach lead on this issue rather than be led?
