My question is straightforward. I understand there has been little or no dialogue on the proposal with business communities. On many occasions the Chamber of Commerce in Waterford sought a meeting with the Minister. I know she is very busy but at the very least she should have met it. Will the Minister agree to establish an interdepartmental working group with the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation to conduct a regulatory impact assessment of these proposals? Will she discuss the practicalities of such proposals with small business groups?
