Brian Cowen (Laois-Offaly, Fianna Fail)

The answer I was about to give before Deputy Costello decided to give his views on the adequacy or otherwise of my reply, which he had not heard, is that a review is ongoing at present which will make recommendations to Government which will lead to a reform of the present situation, which is something for which the Deputy has probably called. As soon as the Government considers and makes decisions on them we will discuss them in this House.
