Cosúil leis an Teachta O'Dea, ba mhaith liom comhghairdeas a ghabháil leis an mbeirt Airí agus tá súil agam go mbeidh an chuid seo do thréimhse Rialtais i bhfad níos fearr ná an chuid dheireanach agus go mbeidh siad in ann déileáil le roinnt de na ceisteanna a d'ardaigh muid le tamall.

This question is to find out whether the Tánaiste agrees that the public has the right to know the names of the companies which are getting a subsidy of €82.3 million in the form of millions of hours of free labour under the JobBridge scheme and whether she agrees that her Department was wrong to deny my freedom of information request with the release of only 32% of the names of those companies benefiting from this lucrative public subsidy, with 6,500 interns engaged at present and a further 11,000 due over the next year.
