Dick Roche (Wicklow, Fianna Fail)

A predecessor of the Deputy on the bench opposite in 1973 balked at this. I do not blame him because of the arguments that were put against him. I will send Deputy O'Donnell a copy of something I wrote on that.

There has been much talk across the benches in this House about reform in public administration. I do not for a moment question the sincerity of what has been said about culling quangos - I agree with it-----
