Paschal Donohoe (Dublin Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I did my best to respond to the specific matters raised by Deputy McGrath, because I felt he was due an answer on the issues he raised about the assembly. As I stated, I will now ensure that the Deputy receives a response on the specific issue raised as opposed to the general matter of the criteria for consultation on Government-sponsored fora, which was the subject matter of this Topical Issue. There needs to be a presumption of good faith on the part of both sides of the debate.
