I have been asked to Chair the meeting for this business. I remind members and witnesses to turn off their mobile phones. I will not go through the detail as everyone knows what is required.

We are meeting to consider a Dáil motion on the terms of the United Nations Minamata Convention on Mercury. I welcome the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, Deputy Richard Bruton. The presentation and supporting documents have been circulated to members in advance of the meeting. I invite the Minister to enlighten all of us about this important matter.
