Éamon Ó Cuív (Galway West, Fianna Fail)

The lack of involvement by the Taoiseach and Tánaiste in meeting other leaders gets starker all the time. In the lead-up to the last summit, the Taoiseach failed to outline to the Dáil the demands he would present. Just before the summit he gave RTE a copy of a letter which he had sent to the President of the European Council, Mr. Van Rompuy, which included some details. Without going around the houses, will the Taoiseach tell the House exactly what proposals he has made to other leaders before the upcoming summit? Will he clarify whether he has circulated any paper and, if so, will he make that paper available to this House?
