Kieran O'Donnell (Limerick East, Fine Gael)

On a point of order, I raised the matter in that form because it was the only way I was allowed to do so. Previously, when this matter was raised in respect of the Bawnmore centre, respite was not an issue. As my case and that of my colleague, Deputy Feighan, show, Deputies are being forced to raise general statements when the Government is well aware that we are seeking specific answers. Ministers come before the Chamber and give us answers consisting of general waffle, which is not good enough.
