Pat Carey (Dublin North West, Fianna Fail)

I am simply telling the Deputy what is on the record. I repeat my earlier comments on State agencies. The proposals of the Ceann Comhairle concerning the examination of one or two of those State agencies to establish how a mechanism could be found to have questions replied in written form in the House should be explored. Some progress was made with the HSE and the National Roads Authority in the past year about how that could be delivered.
