Maurice Cummins (Fine Gael)

I thank the Cathaoirleach for his explanation, as I did not have an answer for Senator Terry Leyden.

Senator Thomas Byrne, acting Leader of the Opposition, referred to job creation, the Government's No. 1 priority. Further announcements on a strategy will be made during the coming weeks. The Seanad has had an input, as I have forwarded the bullet points of our debate on job creation to the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Deputy Richard Bruton, and the Minister of State, Deputy John Perry. Our points will be taken into consideration. The Seanad is, once again, playing an active role in suggesting ideas for job creation. We should continue in this vein.
