It does in the sense that I am asking whether the Tánaiste will amend the Residential Institutions Redress Act to cater for this woman's very legitimate claim?

Will the Tánaiste forward me a report in respect of the Children Act? I have raised this matter on a number of occasions. Sections 96, 111, 112, 115 to 132, inclusive, and 137 to 139, inclusive, have not been implemented and despite the Taoiseach giving assurances that reports would be forthcoming, it has not happened.

When are we likely to see the pharmacy Bill? Can the Tánaiste confirm whether the post of chief pharmacist within the Department of Health and Children has been filled in view of the concerns expressed by individuals about public health protection and patient safety?

Is it proposed to amend the code of conduct for office holders or are we to have a situation where Ministers of State order private secretaries to attend various functions? I ask this in light of the antics of the "engine Callely"?
