Last month, I gave the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, a number of sworn affidavits containing serious allegations about planning irregularities in County Wicklow. The Tánaiste would be familiar with the content of some of them because they were on his desk when he was the Minister with responsibility for this area in 2016 and 2017. I have not received a response since those sworn affidavits were handed over to the Minister. Subsequently, the Garda, which was also furnished copies of those affidavits, has opened up a criminal investigation into the allegations. These are legacy issues. They have been on the Tánaiste's desk and on the desks of previous Ministers. The Government is completely deaf to these allegations. What will it do about this? Will it lift the cloud hanging over the names of some good people-----

We have got the Deputy's question. Many other Members are offering.

-----who work in County Wicklow, investigate these issues and hold people to account if they are to be held to account?

We have got the gist of the question.

The Government's deafness to these issues is unacceptable.

Is the Tánaiste in a position to answer on that?

I have some recollection of these issues when I was in that Ministry, when there were discussions in the Department regarding those files but I would have to have a look at the detail again before I could give the Deputy a proper answer. I will certainly raise the matter with the current Minister.
