Shane Ross (Independent)

Fianna Fáil has appointed its own people whose loyalty is to one Taoiseach or Minister and not to the country.

The Minister then comes to this House and says to me there are reasons I can understand why boards of State bodies cannot give evidence to Oireachtas committees. I do not know those reasons and I ask the Minister to explain them to me. I will give him one minute of my time now to explain them to me.
