If they do not have a right to be here, we make sure they leave. This is the policy of the Government.

I thank Deputy McNamara for raising two important matters and giving me an opportunity to respond. In relation to the first one, which is a very serious matter, the Government's response to this is to pass the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking) Bill. Of course, not knowing the specifics of the individual case raised, but taking it as an example of a broader issue, we saw the Criminal Law (Sexual Offences and Human Trafficking) Bill passed in the Dáil in recent days. It is now moving forward into t…

Indeed, it was that alert system that would have identified this issue.

We do have rules. Rules are enforced and need to be seen to be enforced. On occasions where there are any questions with regard to that, it is important that we can quickly move to clarify that situation.

There was a judgment given. Having been a Minister in Departments, I know that when judgments come in, they are generally considered and then advice is given, and the next steps are taken. My understanding is that the review was sought by the Minister last week. The Minister will respond-----

The Deputy was late turning up for his question and now he is shouting me down. He might just give me a moment here because these are serious matters.

I thank the Deputy. I was here to answer his question. When the High Court makes comments, Government Departments take them very seriously. Government Departments then appraise what action needs to be taken and advise the Minister. The Minister made the decision quite rightly to seek a review into this matter. She wants that review to provide clarity with regard to this specific case. That is important because I do not believe some of the information the Deputy mentioned in good faith is accurate. I believe that in…

A review with regard to learning and making sure this has not happened in any other cases is also important.

That is completely wrong.

Just to be very clear, what we did on Mount Street had a very positive impact. A total of 290 more people got accommodation and access to sanitation and we managed to avert a public health near-emergency. I am very pleased with that multi-agency response. I continue to believe it was the right action to take. I became Taoiseach four weeks ago. I took charge of this situation. There had been, in my view, a tacit acceptance by many State agencies that the situation on Mount Street could just continue and was just a n…

It is absolutely true that a situation has now arisen in respect of the Grand Canal. Last week in this House, I stood here and told the Deputy we had to deal with Mount Street. I am telling him now that we will deal with the Grand Canal. Action will be taken. I accept Deputy Bacik's bona fides on this matter, knowing it is in her constituency as well. I need to say this: we have to have a broader discussion about migration that is not just about accommodation. If it is solely one about accommodation, we will find o…

-----where we provide more accommodation and that accommodation will fill up. We also need to be very honest about this. We now have some parties in this House talking about not being in favour of open borders. Deputy McDonald used to say there was no such thing as an open borders policy. I would like her to identify for me which open border on the island of Ireland she would like to now close, as it did not come up in my conversations in Belfast last week. The Government has worked with Sinn Féin and others on the…

Sinn Féin's local election candidates are delivering leaflets promising that it will end the open border policy. I do not know what that means. Will Deputy McDonald please explain it?

There is a video of the very fine Deputy beside her saying Sinn Féin is against it. I look forward to the debate we will have in this House on an open border policy because there are no open-----

The only open border-----

Sorry, I do not know what is going on here.

Even the rest of the Opposition thinks it is true.

He was in the video.
