Paul Coghlan (Fine Gael)

The Leader would appreciate that too. On another issue, I strongly support the remarks of Senator Fitzgerald. There is a sufficient number of eminent people — well-trained and well-versed civil servants — in every Department to ensure the necessary cutbacks are made. That is not to disrespect all the eminent people mentioned who will be on the new board known as "an bord snip nua". We do not need it and if we need another budget, that is a matter for the Minister. I would like to hear from the Leader on that issue. We do not need this board. We have had a plethora of boards and most of their reports are gathering dust on shelves in Departments. We have the people to implement a Government policy and we should get on with it.
