Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

We have heard from our witnesses and I thank them for the significant contributions each of them made. In the light of questions that may follow, other speakers may wish to contribute on an issue, to get it right, as the man said. Chuir an Seanadóir Ó Céidigh an clár don chruinniú seo ar bun. I will call an Seanadóir Pádraig Ó Céidigh first. Committee members will get priority and after that I will try to balance everybody out so that we will still be friends after the event.

Normally we take the Fine Gael group, followed by Fianna Fáil, Sinn Féin and Independents. If that is reasonable, after our two opening speakers we will proceed that way.
