Tony Killeen (Clare, Fianna Fail)

On behalf of the Minister, Deputy Gormley, and myself I thank the Members opposite and on this side for their contributions, particularly Deputy Ciarán Lynch for putting much thought into his amendments. In the normal course of events I am well disposed to amendments from the Opposition side but on this occasion, for the reasons I outlined, we were able to manage without them. It is helpful when people make constructive statements or contributions.
