Mary Butler (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

I thank all of the Whips for their co-operation last Thursday evening and yesterday on the joint motion regarding the global flotilla, which will be taken at 3.50 p.m., with the Tánaiste leading out on it. I also want to let the House know, for anyone who has not seen it, that at 2.15 p.m. tomorrow there will be statements on the situation in Gaza, with 202 minutes, so three and a half hours, which will also be led by the Tánaiste. There will be lots of time to debate it.

The other issues that have been raised are tech regulation, SNAs and Deputy Collins's query on agriculture. We are working on Deputy Collins's query and we will take the other two issues under consideration at the meeting of the Business Committee on Thursday morning.
