Cheap mé gur gnáthcheist a chuirtear go minic sa Seanad ar Chéim an Choiste, go háirithe sa chéad díospóireacht, a bhí sa cheist a chuir an Seanadóir Ó Clochartaigh. Is dóigh liom go bhfuil sé réasúnta go leor mar cheist. Bhí ionadh orm nuair a chuala mé a leithéid de fhreagra ón Aire Stáit. I am surprised by the Minister of State's response to Senator Ó Clochartaigh's reasonable question, which is in keeping with the type of question that is regularly put here at the start of Committee Stage debates.
