I apologise for having to leave, but I wanted to participate in the Seanad debate on the legislation that has been introduced on foot of the repeal of the eighth amendment, which is a very profound issue. We were talking to the Minister about some amendments we wanted to make. Regardless of whether one is pro-choice or pro-life, one will agree that this is a profound matter. I wanted to be in the Seanad when the Minister was considering certain amendments. That was the only reason I left.
I understand that the Michael Davitt Museum in Straide, which is one of the most beautiful little museums in the country, has been already mentioned. I wonder how we can get it to stay open.
