Keira Keogh (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I thank all our witnesses for the effort they put into their comprehensive statements. With the agreement of members, I propose we publish the opening statements to the Oireachtas website. Agreed. Before I call on members to speak, I remind them - not that they need any reminding - that we have seven minutes and that needs to include time for the witnesses to answer as well. I will include a brief second round. Members should indicate to me at the end if they wish to speak again. When putting their questions, I ask members to ensure they strictly adhere to the agenda topic under consideration at this meeting. We do not have anyone on MS Teams. I will now call on members in accordance with the speaking rota circulated. We will take Deputy Emer Currie first, then Deputies Kerrane, Dempsey and Ó Murchú.
