Eamon Ryan (Dublin South, Green Party)

I propose to take Question Nos. 28, 34 and 76 together.

In my reply to the earlier priority question I set out the details of the consultation process. I am being asked whether I have consulted with the Minister for Tourism, Culture and Sport. Based on Deputy McManus's earlier comments, if there are derogatory comments about me of a personal nature, I will respond to those. However, I would prefer us to get down to the details and the meat of the issues.
