Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I was trying to answer, but as is so often the case within 15 seconds I was interrupted and shouted down. I do not think I shouted down anyone or interrupted. Those are the tactics that we have become too tolerant of in this House.

To answer Deputy McDonald's question about the undocumented Irish, that issue remains at the top of our priorities in terms of our engagement with the United States authorities. The embassy is very active on this issue, as is the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, and I know the Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Deputy Cannon, will take an interest in it as well, because we want to have some system put in place to regularise Irish migrants who are no longer documented in the United States, along with people from other countries as well.

Our priority of course is Irish citizens who find themselves in that position.
