21. Deputy Micheál Martin asked the Taoiseach if he or his officials have met church leaders. [34892/17]
Amharc ar fhreagra22. Deputy Micheál Martin asked the Taoiseach if he or his officials have met with a person (details supplied). [34930/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 21 and 22 together.
Like public representatives generally, I meet with church leaders from all faiths informally from time to time in the course of attending official or public events.
Since I took office as Taoiseach, neither myself nor my officials have had any formal meetings with any church leaders, including Archbishop Diarmuid Martin. I intend to have meetings under the Structured Dialogue Process soon.
