Éamon Ó Cuív (Galway West, Fianna Fail)

It is not good enough for the Government to wash its hands of this matter. Has the Minister met the majority parties and Dublin City Council to have this problem dealt with? Has he examined his powers under the legislation to deal with this issue, which is now becoming an emergency, in view of the fact that Dublin City Council seems incapable of resolving it? Could the Tánaiste give me clear answers to both of those questions?
