Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I would have to check with the Tánaiste on that. The Tánaiste drew up the schedule for the visits for St. Patrick's Day. I do not believe it is correct to say that the Attorney General always travels to Washington D.C. with the Taoiseach. It has happened in the past. In the past the Attorney General has not travelled at all, and in the past the Attorney General has travelled to other locations. I believe I am correct in saying that what the Deputy has outlined is not the case. I can only remember one occasion when the last Attorney General came to Washington D.C., so I do not believe the Deputy's point is quite accurate.
