Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I do not have a timeline on that - I will have a response sent to the Deputy. In regard to the issue of children, obviously the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs is working on a referendum in respect of child protection. In a general sense, while we might assume that all the children of the nation are supposed to be treated equally, in reality we have been very far from that in a number of areas for many years and we would like to rectify that if we could.
