Phil Hogan (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fine Gael)

I am sure the Minister of State will be able to get some other speaker to make the same comments. That is what usually happens.

I commend Deputy Varadkar for putting down this important motion on consumer issues and the cost of shopping, an issue that affects people day in, day out. You, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle, and I were members of the committee on enterprise in the 29th Dáil.
