Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

As I said, I tabled this amendment to try to get the Minister to focus his mind on this House. I regret it if I did not make that point sufficiently clear. That is the purpose of this amendment. I do not intend to spend much more time dealing with it. I wanted to make the point that the Minister needs to be encouraged to face this House now and again. He needs to listen carefully to what Deputies say. More importantly, he should take on board what we say occasionally.
