Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

I am giving the Deputy the position. Apart from that, hostels are specifically excluded from the legislation passed by this House. It is unfair and unreasonable for Deputies to go out to Marie Therese and suggest something can happen when it cannot. The point I have made, and of which I think the Deputies are aware, is that I cannot say what applications have been made or mention other institutions. Marie Therese was in another institution which is listed.
