Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

The Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism has released a new report on the issue and we will ask the Minister to debate it with us.

Senator Brennan asked about the Community Games and this will be raised with the Minister during the debate on the report from the Department of Arts, Sport and Tourism.

Senator Glynn referred to pedestrians' bad behaviour towards motorists. In other countries, pedestrians wait at a traffic crossing until the green man gives the signal to cross, whereas in Ireland, people dash across the road when a gap appears in the traffic. It is a national trait to dash out when a gap appears, and I do not know how one would deal with offending sign language.

A Chathaoirligh, it is proposed to sit on Friday morning to deal with the Bill to amend the loophole in the asylum legislation, which will have passed all Stages in the Dáil on Thursday. It is proposed also that we suspend the sitting for ten minutes to allow the Minister come to the House.
