Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I thank the Deputy for raising the issue. Some of the costs have come down but I take his point overall on the broader need. Once we make the reforms, reductions should follow given that the industry pushed hard for some of these reforms and that a group of Ministers, which was convened at the start of this Government to work on this, brought forward a range of reforms. Government will always be anxious to work in a constructive fashion with the Deputy in respect of legislation. He knows that well.
