Joe O'Toole (Independent)

The Minister will like the next part. I listened with great interest to Senator Ryan saying the legislation will be reversed. I have heard this many times before in the House, although not from Senator Ryan. I was a Member of the House when the votes of a few Independent Members increased the number of Ministers of State from 15 to 17 or 17 to 19, whatever the figure was, and Fianna Fáil said it would certainly reverse that.
