Order of Business
Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)
Is the Minister for Foreign Affairs in Washington to discuss comprehensive immigration legislation to be passed in the United States or is he basing his talks on a selective or individual arrangement for Ireland? I recognise the complications this involves and the difficulties facing American legislators. I understand the Obama Administration wants to bring in comprehensive immigration legislation this year which will deal with the undocumented Irish and other immigrants.
Does the Taoiseach have any indication of when the report of the Moriarty tribunal will be published?
The interim report of the mid-west task force chaired by Denis Brosnan has been around for some time. He predicts that unemployment could rise to 20% in the mid-west if no action is taken regarding the report's recommendations. I suggest that the Chief Whip arrange an appropriate time to discuss that report in the House.
