Go raibh maith agat, a Chathaoirligh. I will always defer to your rulings. You are aware of that.

I agree with what Senator Noone said about the need for a civil appeals court. The Chief Justice, Ms Susan Denham, has highlighted once more the fact that the Supreme Court is overloaded. Hundreds of cases are outstanding and cannot be heard in time. It is a very urgent matter. I want to support it. I urge the Leader to pass this on. It is something we should pursue with the Minister for Justice and Equality and with the Government.
