Mary White (Fianna Fail)

If I were the Minister of State — I hope he does not construe this as a personal remark — I would seriously consider engaging in discussions with the 240 key companies which employ more than 1,000 people. He needs to listen to the opinions of the companies in question to ensure that we do not have excessive bureaucracy and regulation. I have made my suggestion with all due respect to the Minister of State, who I am sure understands where I am coming from.
