Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (Cork South Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

The Taoiseach has said very clearly that there will be an opportunity to ask questions of the Minister, Deputy Flanagan. However, the Order of Business that has been outlined contains no reference to that. There are very clear questions regarding the manner in which information was given to him through his Department and regarding the record of the Dáil in that wrong information was put on the record. There are clearly issues in regard to his Department, the channels of information and all the rest of it. Many Deputies right across the House would welcome that opportunity and that needs to happen this week. The Taoiseach referred to the fact that there has been a drip-drip of information. If he wants to stop that drip-drip, arrangements need to put in place this week - today or tomorrow - for the Minister for Justice and Equality to come to the House to answer questions. This needs to be added to the schedule for this week.
