Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Apologies have been received from Senators Eileen Flynn and Fiona O'Loughlin. Senator Malcolm Byrne is substituting for Senator O'Loughlin. I remind members to ensure their mobile phones are switched off for the duration of the meeting as they interfere with the broadcasting equipment of the Houses, even if they are in silent mode. Are the minutes of the meeting of 12 October agreed to? Agreed.
