Dermot Ahern (Louth, Fianna Fail)

The Deputy asked whether all parties in government were in favour. All parties represented at the Cabinet table — the Green Party, the Progressive Democrats and ourselves — are in favour of the reform treaty as agreed last week. Obviously, the broader church of each individual party might have members with different views on the treaty from the view expressed by the Taoiseach or me in the case of my party. I am not saying everyone in my party holds exactly the same view as we do on the treaty.
