I will. The Government is charged with governing the Republic of Ireland, looking after its welfare, ensuring jobs are created, that people's livelihoods are protected and that the country develops appropriately. In that context, the Minister, Deputy Ross, being the anti-judicial crusader, has spent half his time in the Department of Justice and Equality when he has responsibility for a legislative measure that I and residents in my constituency of Dublin Fingal urgently need in respect of how the airport will develop and how that will impact on the area of north Dublin. He has had it for months. It is about setting up the Irish Aviation Authority as the competent authority to assess matters such as unrestricted night flights and how that will affect local residents and communities in the area. That is what he should be responsible for. He should look after his brief.
