I am. I was at a briefing with the Ceann Comhairle. Interestingly, it was about the security of Members and staff.

I certainly want to comment on this situation. It is very important that we try to take all measures to protect all of our citizens, and not only Members of this House and whoever else. The situation is very bad at present. It has deteriorated rapidly under the Minister's watch. A lot of it, but not all of it, is down to the lack of gardaí.
