62.
asked the Minister for Labour whether he suggested to Radio or Telefís Éireann that certain individuals be not allowed to broadcast; if so, the number of occasions and the reasons for his actions on all such occasions.
I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to take Questions Nos. 61 and 62 together. I would refer the Deputy to the reply given by the Taoiseach.
Is it necessary to have Ministers at all in this House if, when asked a question, they refer to a reply by the Taoiseach?
The answer is a good one.
