Order of Business
3:00 pm
Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)
I discussed this matter with Deputy Kenny. I will be replying to the letter he sent to me; it should be with him today. My understanding from Ministers involved on my side is that it is impossible to get substantive agreement. Deputy Shatter has been very helpful in discussions but it is their view that to put this question we would not alone have to make a decision, but we would also have to have the draft legislation. That is something they do not see us being able to agree on. If it is possible, they should resume discussions but I will answer the letter.
