Catherine Byrne (Dublin South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am fully aware of the service Dublin Fire Brigade provides in the city through the council. I am a long-standing fan of Dublin Fire Brigade and the service it provides since my term as Lord Mayor. It provided a service for the Lord Mayor at the time also. I will bring the issues that have been raised by the Deputies to the Minister's attention. Unfortunately, he cannot be present, but it is not his fault as he had to leave for another engagement. I will raise the procurement issue with him and the three parliamentary questions tabled on 17 October and ask him to reply personally to both Deputies.
