Aodhán Ó Ríordáin (Dublin North Central, Labour) | Oireachtas source

We have a quorum, so I call the meeting to order. Apologies have been received from Senator Healy Eames, who has said she will be late. At the request of broadcasting and recording services, I ask members to ensure their mobile phones are turned off completely and not just left on silent mode during the meeting. The broadcasting unit will broadcast the public session of this meeting live. The proceedings are carried on UPC channel 207. We will now go into private session to deal with minutes and correspondence.
