Order of Business

Jerry Buttimer (Fine Gael)
The people are angry, unhappy and astounded at the latest revelation that the head of the HSE will receive a bonus of €70,000. What is happening? Where is the accountability? Is anyone in charge? I want a debate on accountability in FÁS. The Tánaiste knew nothing, while the Minister for Health and Children is not in control of the HSE and tells us it is not her department. No Minister claims responsibility for the NRA, CIE or tourism. It is time we had answers to questions about who is responsible for the running of Departments and the agencies attached to them.
I am also calling for a debate on the programme for Government. I am sorry my good friend Senator Boyle is missing because I completely disagree with Senator O'Toole.
