I remind members to please ensure their mobile phones are switched off for the duration of the meeting as they interfere with the broadcasting equipment of the House even if on silent mode.

I welcome our guests in the Public Gallery: Mr. Yuming Lian, a student of Mr. Michael Grehan, who is a teacher at Belvedere College in Dublin 1; Ms Aoibhínn Doyle of Ramsgrange Community College in County Wexford; Ms Jane Foley of Dominican College in Dublin 9; and students Ms Leah Jennings and Ms Layla Grace White, and their teacher Mr. Conor McGrath from Ballinteer Community College in Dublin 16. The students will also meet a Czech delegation this afternoon. I also welcome Ms Niamh Kilcawley, Ms Sinéad Kilcawley and Mr. Ciarán Delaney. I previously met Niamh, who is a tireless campaigner and a role model for all visually impaired students. I thank them for joining us today.

Are the minutes of the meeting of 9 September agreed to? Agreed.
