Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

Senator Brian Hayes referred to the level of housing output over the past number of years and it would be helpful if the issue was debated. I will ask the acting Deputy Leader to reply later on the motion tabled by the Progressive Democrats, which Senator Hayes proposed should be taken at the conclusion of the Order of Business in conjunction with No. 1. His amendment was seconded by Senator O'Toole. That is a novel development and we never refuse co-operation.
