I will conclude. I thank the Acting Chairman for his patience.

The increase in inequality in this Dáil term is a serious indictment of the Government. I do not mean this personally as I do not have anything against the Minister of State or the Acting Chairman. However, if inequality and child poverty are increasing, the Government does not have the right to tell the House how wonderful everything is and doing so makes me sick.
