When it suits certain people, The Irish Times is quoted lovingly, and when it does not suit, it is not quoted. There we are.

Senator Hayes also asked about toll charges, which are to increase from €1.80 to €1.90. He suggested it would have been better if the price had been left unchanged.

Senator O'Toole referred to the debate on the Minister of State at the Department of Health and Children, Deputy Tim O'Malley. The debate is really about youth mental services, including psychological and psychiatric services, and what was discussed in the House on Tuesday. We are endeavouring to arrange a debate on the issue. I do not know if we will able to have that debate next week but we should have it in the first week after the recess. The Minister of State has expressed himself very interested in attending and having a worthwhile debate.
