I thank the Minister. With regard to his remarks about the atrocity in Manchester earlier in this week, at a meeting of the select committee earlier, on behalf of the committee I recorded our abhorrence of the barbarous act and heinous crime committed on innocent people going about their evening's enjoyment.

I understand the Minister has another engagement that he has to attend at 11.30 a.m., so to make best use of time, I will group the questions. I will call Deputy Darragh O'Brien who will be followed by Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan and then Deputy Seán Barrett.
