I agree with my good friend on the other side, Senator Ned O'Sullivan with regard to what he said about Moore Street. As we are all aware, part of that street is a national monument and we would all like to see a suitable memorial there, as outlined by the Senator. I support the call for the Minister, Deputy Deenihan, to come to the House soon with the report from the committee to update us on this. Hopefully, the matter will be attended to as soon as possible.

Reference was made this morning to tribunal reports. As we know, any recommendations that may be contained in such reports, for example in the Mahon report which is imminent, are a matter for Government. It will look at the recommendations if any, and presumably there will be some. No doubt, any serious recommendations will be treated as such by the Government and legislation will follow. I support the call for a debate on the issue, following publication of the report. If any issues arise from any other tribunal reports, those should be dealt with in another debate. I support the calls for a debate.
