David Cullinane (Sinn Fein)

Like previous speakers and on behalf my party colleagues, I extend our sincere sympathy to the family of the late Deputy Brian Lenihan. It is welcome that the Leader of the House will provide time tomorrow, for which I thank him, to speak extensively about Brian, his life and achievements.

I extend my sympathy also to the family of the late Liam Kelly, a former Member of this House. He was a Member in the 1950s, along with being a member of Saor Uladh. On several occasions he spoke extensively in the Chamber about the right of Nationalists and Unionists in the North to representation in the Oireachtas. He was also an MP for the constituency of Mid-Ulster in the Stormont Assembly in the 1950s. I extend my sympathy to his family.

I wish to raise a number of other issues. On several occasions I have asked the Leader of the House to clarify when the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation will come into the Chamber to discuss the review of the joint labour committees, JLCs.
