Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

The Deputy may not understand that it takes time to agree a policy position, debate the issues in Cabinet and draft and publish the legislation. In the area of political reform, we have done more in 100 days than any other Administration in the history of the State. I look forward to the Deputy's support when these matters are brought before the Dáil and I hope the proposals I outlined will be given a speedy passage.
