Dick Roche (Wicklow, Fianna Fail)

I thank the Senators who have contributed to this good natured, constructive debate. The issues considered were wide-ranging and issues relating to nomenclature will factor into the discussions of the next commission.

Regarding Senator Paddy Burke's point about the green man at Garda stations, in circumstances where the green man cannot stamp one's card it is possible to go to the local authority. Perhaps this is not very well known and should be examined in discussions in the autumn. In addition to thanking the Senators who made a contribution I also thank the staff of the House who dealt with the Bill in an expeditious manner. I wish everyone who has a practical and personal interest in the matters discussed the best of luck in the new constituencies when they come into effect in the next general election of May 2007.
