- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (7 Mar 2019)
Jim Daly: I thank the Deputy for the question. We are awaiting final legal advice on the matter. There has been a delay in receiving it, as experienced in most Departments, because Brexit has been given priority, but I hope the delays will ease soon. Some minor technicalities must be teased out, but I am hopeful that, once we receive a response on them, we can have the heads of the Bill published...

- Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation (7 Mar 2019)
Jim Daly: The delivery of services is not dependent on an Oireachtas committee, but I have no objection to the establishment of one. As I understand it, though, the establishment of Oireachtas committees is a matter more appropriate to the Ceann Comhairle's good office and the Business Committee as opposed to the Government.

He does not have to ask if I will meet him; of course, I will always meet Oireachtas Members. I cannot give a guarantee to meet every individual in the country who wants to meet me, but if...
