Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I support Deputy Kenny's pursuit of the issues raised in the joint Fine Gael-Labour motion. This matter will have to be inquired into. It would be better if the Government agreed to the proposal we have made, which is modest and should not divide the House. I ask the Taoiseach to reconsider the Government's position, which would appear to be to amend the proposal before the House.
