============================================================

Mairéad Farrell (SF), Galway West

Sometimes we need to learn from our mistakes in a lot of different ways. The Minister will have learned from this week that a questions and answers session in the Dáil is what is needed. I would have thought this, as the Minister's first time taking questions in the Dáil as Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform, would be the perfect opportunity for that. I will read out some of the questions so that if the Minister is not doing questions and answers, he can at least include them in his statement. He should be taking part in a questions and answers session, however. For example, a question he was asked four times yesterday is whether Michael Stone paid people to put up posters for him.
