Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

In any event, the position about the process of government is very clear and it is one I have outlined for the Deputy before. The text was agreed last night by the Heads of Government and has been formally sent from the Cabinet to the Attorney General. The Cabinet will await the advice of the Attorney General and, once received, I will so inform the Dáil. The Government will then act on the basis of the advice of the Attorney General.

Deputy Higgins's comments about the Minister, Deputy Varadkar, and the Irish people are beneath him.
