Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

I have not blocked any of them. Some people come in, others leave. There is a structure between the organisations. I do not get involved with who is in or out of the fourth pillar. While working out the last social partnership agreement, about ten organisations left and about 15 came in. It was negotiated between the groups. I am not against that.
