Pat Rabbitte (Dublin South West, Labour)

I agree with the Taoiseach that it is important to move forward on constitutional protection for the rights of the child, but I am not entirely clear on the last exchange. Is the Taoiseach saying that we will have an omnibus referendum or that a number of separate and different proposals will be put to the people? Is he saying that it is an open question as to whether the referendum will happen before the general election?

May I ask the Taoiseach about the decision of his Government to give €4.3 million of taxpayers' money to a company that sacked 500 Irish workers and replaced them with cheaper labour?
