Billy Timmins (Wicklow, Fine Gael)

I look forward to the Deputy's submission. There will always be division. I will pre-empt his contribution by including him with those who make self-serving speeches based on that action. I am sorry I will not be present when the constitutional expert, Deputy Finian McGrath, contributes. I hope he is more expert than he was last week when he misinterpreted the Constitution.

A commission should be established to examine our electoral system. I am glad the Minister for Transport is present because he tried to introduce reform in the past and he was shot down unfairly by self-serving sections of the media.
