Séamus Brennan (Dublin South, Fianna Fail)

I am examining this issue generally in terms of sport. On the one hand, we must ensure experts have enough autonomy to do their jobs and, on the other, ensure the entire effort lines up in the same direction to achieve a result. This might seem contradictory, but I do not believe it is. I am referring to the necessary amount of autonomy to ensure we play as a team. It is a whopper of a statement, but I am sure the Deputy knows what I mean.
