Mattie McGrath (Tipperary South, Independent)

I am speaking to the amendment. I am asking the Minister to indicate what standards will be used before he allows any inspections. He is talking about a consultation after the Bill is passed. The Minister can make flippant remarks about the last Government but he has been here a long time. Why did he not raise this issue over the past 30 years and get it sorted?
