Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

I thank Deputy Coppinger for bringing this issue and setting it out so clearly in the motion and to the visitors in the Gallery. I wish the Minister best of luck in his new role and I welcome that he is not opposing the motion, which is often the death knell - but I will give him the benefit of the doubt that it is not the death knell and he will take this matter seriously.
