Senators Jim D'Arcy and Conway called for the work of the working group on special needs to be expedited and I am sure that will be done. I have addressed the whole question of special needs. Senator Ó Domhnaill said the Government is here to govern and that is exactly what this Government is doing, trying to implement fair and compassionate policies. This is not the first time Senator Ó Domhnaill has said we should not be giving foreign aid to many agencies. We had a debate on foreign aid here and I do not think he contributed to that.
