Does the Minister for Social Protection, Deputy Joan Burton, agree that we require a comprehensive statement from the Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Shatter, on the reasons he decided to relieve Mr. Connolly of his duties? Second, does she agree it is now important that the Minister for Justice and Equality make a comprehensive statement in the House on the entire affair and apologise to the whistleblower, Mr. Maurice McCabe, for wronging him through the allegation of non-co-operation? Can the Minister for Social Protection say to the House that she has confidence in Deputy Shatter as Minister for Justice and Equality?
