Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour) | Oireachtas source

I must stop the Deputy. One of the administrative staff has just told me that people are telephoning the Oireachtas to complain about the fact that mobile phones were turned on during this meeting. They are watching the meeting live and cannot hear what people are saying. I have just heard another phone go off. If it happens again, I will have to ask the member to leave the meeting.

It is very irritating for people who are watching this evening's proceedings and hoping to hear some positivity from the banks about movement if they cannot hear anything other than a buzz. I ask the Deputy to turn off his telephone.
