Minister for Defence (Mr. O’Dea):
I have not delegated a specific function to the Minister of State at my Department, Mr. Tom Kitt, T.D. who is also Minister of State at the Department of the Taoiseach. I do, however, on an ongoing basis, request his assistance in the execution of certain duties. Minister Kitt has deputised for me at official events on a number of occasions when I have been unable to attend due to prior diary commitments.
