Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

They have three leaders today.

None of these issues can be achieved solely by means of the purest version of the world of balance referred to by the Green Party, and nobody is trying to do that. I have explained the Government's policy to the Deputy. Air quality is excellent in this country. The Deputy referred to many reports and I expected him to refer to the Environmental Protection Agency which concluded that as regards pollutants, air quality in this country complies with all the air quality standards in force. These are significant achievements.
