It is the one nearest to here.

Senator Noone also raised the issue of voting rights. I have already dealt with that matter. We will have a fuller debate on that issue in the New Year.

Senator Ó Murchú also raised the issues of voting rights and Ireland's relationship with Europe. He clearly introduced a strand, as Senators Bradford and Paul Coghlan agreed with him. A debate on whether EU regulations are overly restrictive in some areas would be good. It is a question we can tease out. Senator Bradford's mother and her four unregistered hens were raised in this context. We could seek to invite the Minister of State, Deputy Creighton, to the House. I am unsure as to whether she has appeared in the Chamber yet. It could be useful.
