I second Senator Byrne's amendment to the Order of Business. I wish all my colleagues a peaceful and enjoyable break during the few weeks we will be off. As this is the final Order of Business this session, I do not want to press a vote on Senator Norris's amendment.

In a matter of weeks Mr. Justice Moriarty of the Moriarty tribunal will adjudicate on third party legal cost applications. The auditor general has estimated these costs will be in the region of €80 million to €100 million. I wish to advise the House that I have received new information that raises concerns about the evidence of some key tribunal witnesses, particularly a Member of the Lower House. The new information refers to the acquisition of Doncaster Rovers Football Club and records that the Member attended well in excess of 50 meetings relating to this acquisition.
