I thank the Minister for his comments. I will bring in Deputy Eamon Ryan and give him the equal opportunity that every other member has had. When we move on to the next subheadings of B to F, inclusive, we will have to keep the debate tight because we are under pressure to conclude the meeting by 11.30 a.m. I have allowed quite a degree of latitude. This matter is a huge issue and a very topical one and, therefore, deserves a bit of latitude. However, we must keep the debate a bit tight and I ask members for their co-operation. I give Deputy Ryan the floor and he has equal opportunity to ask questions, as every other member has had, on this section.
