Frances Fitzgerald (Dublin Mid West, Fine Gael)

I wish to examine as comprehensively as possible the issues raised by Deputy Daly. I will consider international best practice and given our constitutional and legal constraints I will consider what precisely can be done with regard to the Deputy's query. The current contact register goes a certain way. It is clear many people will seek this information and we want the process to be as comprehensive as possible and to include supports for the individuals. This has been the practice in other countries.
