Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael)

On a point of order, as Fine Gael Party Whip, I was not informed that the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform would be absent from the House. We have been pushing for a debate on this important matter for the past number of weeks. As I understand it, the Minister is holding a press conference. The Minister appears to have more respect for people outside this House than inside it.
