Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail)

I reiterate our motion and seek the full support of the House for it. It states quite clearly that 1.9 million people are at work in the State. We are proud of the Government and its unified approach with its Progressive Democrats colleagues. I again appeal to the Minister of State, Deputy Parlon, to expedite decentralisation to Roscommon because we are looking forward to it occurring shortly.

I commend the motion to the House and seek a unanimous statement of support from all sides.
