I do not think it is being grasped. The Government has a strategic infrastructure sub-committee, including the Taoiseach, the Tánaiste, the Minister for Finance, the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, and the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government. We are depending on agriculture for our economy to recover, yet it is getting a hammering. The situation is very serious indeed.
I also wish to ask about the reform of criminal justice legislation. When will we see reform of the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions to allow for transparency and accountability? We should know the reasoning behind decisions to prosecute or not in some areas. The bewildered public deserve some explanation concerning the actions, or inaction sometimes, of the DPP.
