Eoghan Murphy (Dublin South East, Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for his reply. Irish international rugby is only getting stronger and domestically the game is coming on in leaps and bounds, particularly when one considers the school games. On Sunday recently, I attended the Leinster area junior schools' rugby final in which St. Michael's College beat Newbridge College. I offer my commiserations to Deputy Lawlor who is sitting beside me and who attended Newbridge College on behalf of myself and Deputy Boyd Barrett who also went to St. Michael's.
