Senator Gilroy asked for a debate on the budgetary process in the new year which we can arrange.

Senator Daly is not in the Chamber. Senator Reilly asked for a debate on youth unemployment which is a matter we can consider for the next session of the Seanad Public Consultation Committee. I have received requests from the Ombudsman for Children that children would be discussed at this committee, too. We may be able to include youth issues there but that will be a decision for the committee.

Senator O'Donnell made some salient points on democracy. We are glad the issue of flood defences in Clontarf, as mentioned by Senator Barrett, has been solved, temporarily, anyway.
