Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

Each case is different. In the CC case not all the procedures were followed. However, all the work on the case showed it was processed in an expeditious, timely and conscientious manner. Although the work went on, the Attorney General had not been informed. Efforts have been made to improve procedures. Some months ago when I asked how many challenges to constitutional Acts of the Oireachtas there were, the number was 550 cases.
