Joe O'Toole (Independent)

I want a full debate. If the Leader states the only time it is possible is during the first week back that makes sense.

The House should welcome an initiative described in The Irish Times today. The newspaper will make its archive which goes back to 1859 available to every school and researcher worldwide. This is an extraordinary and mind-boggling initiative. It opens up information and provides access to people at all levels. It should be recommended to all newspapers.
