Question 80: To ask the Minister for Finance the reason parliamentary questions tabled by this Deputy to each Minister regarding details and outcomes of the Croke Park deal have been answered only by him; if he will insist on each Minister responding to the parliamentary question giving his or her particular details as requested; the reason there is such a reluctance by Ministers to give specific details; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I am happy that the approach adopted in answering the question was appropriate. I answered the Parliamentary Questions tabled on behalf of fellow Ministers in relation to the Croke Park Agreement as my Department prepared the overall Civil Service and State Agency Action Plan, the contents of which apply to all Departments. This plan was based upon the action plans submitted by each Government Department to my Department. The Implementation Body has now reviewed and approved the Civil Service and State Agency Sectoral Plan. All Departments/Offices were requested to publish their local Action Plan on their website.
