In view of the Leader's answer yesterday to Senator Ross, I join with Senator O'Toole and Senator Finucane in inquiring further about the Aer Rianta legislation. Given the views expressed last night, could the Deputy Leader confirm that the Government has reversed engines on this matter, that it is going back to the Cabinet for review and that, as others have suggested, the House will not see the legislation until at least the autumn?

What is intended on the Irish citizenship legislation? There have been reported comments of the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform on the matter and the timetable now seems to be uncertain.

The 9 o'clock rule on accompanying children in hotels is very important to those of us working in tourism, particularly in certain parts of the country. Could the Deputy Leader confirm that the Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism was merely flying a kite and that the position is as enunciated by the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform in a response to Dáil questions?
