Marc MacSharry (Fianna Fail)

I ask the Leader for a debate on youth affairs. I do not know if Members are aware but this weekend the annual Dáil na nÓg was held in Croke Park, attended by some 200 school pupils from all around the country. We should debate the many challenges that confront youth. The House is always graced with the presence of many school pupils, far exceeding that of members of the press, so it is appropriate to debate issues important to them.
