Martin Mansergh (Fianna Fail)

The Senator should have a word with Mr. Phil Flynn. There is no clearer democratic mandate to carry this out. As a former civil servant, I note that a duty of civil servants, who obviously have to point out all the difficulties and ramifications, is to implement Government policy for which there is a clear mandate. On the basis of conversations I have had, I am sure they will do so, despite what one is reading.
