Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

The Taoiseach did not respond to my specific questions on whether the guarantees have been committed to paper in text form, what point this process has reached and what measures he envisages bringing forward in terms of their legally binding status. While Deputy Bruton referred to my point about not listening, he spoke only about the lead-up to the Lisbon treaty. My point is that the Government has failed to listen to the result of the referendum, and since.
