Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I acknowledge that it is the role of the Government to act in the common good. We may disagree on what the common good is from time to time. I accept it is the responsibility of the Government to act within the common good, which is why I do not accept this charge that has been made, namely, that the Government only does the right thing when it is dragged to court or loses a court case.
