This is an important topic and my question, No. 3, relates to it. However, as this is the last occasion we will have questions to the Taoiseach in this session, we should note that this Question Time demonstrates again how the Taoiseach has ensured over the past five years that it is months before our questions are answered. It is two and a half months since these questions were tabled. At the outset of this term of office the Taoiseach halved the number of question sessions and got rid of one day for raising questions. He also refuses to reschedule sessions he misses. He answers fewer questions than any Taoiseach before him and has answered fewer than any previous Taoiseach in this session.
