Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

I note with regret his failure to accept the very reasoned arguments presented by Deputy Howlin and myself to the effect that there is a fundamental difference between the arrangement arising out of the engagement with political parties in the formulation of a programme for Government and the secret under the desk agreements made with Independent Deputies. This is wrong and will the Taoiseach not accept that this distorts the democratic process?
