Where do we stand on the Bill? Is the Minister making amendments? Has he accepted them? What is he doing?

The examples I have given, namely, the prevention of job creation in Dublin and the Dog Breeding Establishments Bill, show how the Government is run. The key word is "run": it does not think or plan and has no strategy or job creation plan. It has nothing. The best thing it could do is call a general election, get beaten and let us govern.
