Ruairi Quinn (Dublin South East, Labour)

The Minister has been in her role for three years. The programme for Government makes a specific commitment, but the Minister has been in office in the current Government for more than three months. She is trying to claim that she was aware of the problem and that she has done much work, but is it any wonder there is a problem in Balbriggan if she cannot answer a question about the specific commitment to a unit with a principal officer or some other staffing?
