‹ Ceisteanna ar Sonraíodh Uain Dóibh - Priority Questions Minister's absence from Priority Questions
Summary
Deputy Pa Daly criticises the Minister’s absence despite numerous submitted questions; the Minister of State says they are present, and the Chair moves proceedings on.
Are we waiting for the Minister to arrive?
Comment on this
I am reluctant to say too much while the Minister himself is not here but there are about 15 Deputies who have submitted questions. They are expecting a response from the Minister. I mean no disrespect to the dream team that has arrived.

Did Kerry win the all-Ireland this year? Is the Deputy still cranky over that?
Comment on this
No, I am a bit cranky with the Minister for not turning up. It is not the first time he has not shown up. In all fairness, the Ministers of State are more than capable of deputising.
