View answerI understand that this question will be dealt with by the Taoiseach next week. There was a technical difficulty in transferring the question from my Department to the Department of the Taoiseach. I had understood it would not appear on the Order Paper today.
We will raise it with the Taoiseach next week.
It is automatically being transferred.
Does this mean that the constitutional convention is a matter for the Taoiseach and not for the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform?
We thought the Minister had responsibility for reform.
I would be very happy to answer any questions on the constitutional convention. The Taoiseach will be setting out the position regarding the convention when he answers the question next week.
