First, we must change the emergency response mechanisms and put new protocols in place. Second, communication with the families directly affected must improve. A senior official must be appointed to co-ordinate that communication, as it is not good enough to expect Oireachtas Members to handle that role in times of crisis. I look forward to the Minister of State, Deputy Costello, or another of his colleagues responding to this debate with proper procedures.
