Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

We do not want to give the impression that the Government or the House do not care. I ask the Ceann Comhairle and the Government to accept my amendment as it in everybody's interest to do so. We should set aside the business planned and deal with the issue that has most relevance for people, even as the rain continues to pour from the sky as we speak.
