Ceisteanna–Questions. - Departmental Staff.
That would appear to be a separate question.
We are straying into an area into which we should not stray. The DPP's office is independent.
He is independent in the performance of his functions.
The Deputy is asking about decisions of the DPP which cannot be questioned in this House.
Again, that would appear to be a separate question. We are dealing with the staffing levels of the Office of the DPP.

Minerals Development Bill, 1999 [ Seanad ] : Second Stage.
The Deputy is digressing. I can find no reference to fisheries in this Bill.
I was waiting for the Deputy to relate what he was saying to the contents of the Bill.
That does not entitle the Deputy to go fishing.
