John Paul Phelan (Fine Gael)

I join with Senators who have expressed their concerns about what has happened and continues to happen in the Middle East. I support my Independent colleagues who have called for an amendment to the Order of Business so that we may have a discussion on that issue.

Will the Leader arrange for the Minister for Transport to come into the House in the near future to discuss motoring? I have raised the plight of motorists on a number of occasions. The motorist is being hounded from every corner.
