I compliment the Minister on his contribution in the House yesterday on the Lisbon treaty. I was disappointed with last night's "Oireachtas Report". Yesterday we had two excellent contributions from Deputies Roche and McGuinness. I will take up with RTE the coverage this House is getting on "Oireachtas Report" and the imbalance in that regard. Yesterday the Minister spoke here on the reform treaty and today he went to Lisbon to discuss it and witness the leaders of Europe signing up to it. The debate was timely. There is more to the Houses of the Oireachtas than the Order of Business.
