I am waiting for him to come to Cork. He will be there tomorrow night.

Money does walk and does move. We must ensure that this project is put in place, not only for this prison but for Limerick Prison, Mountjoy and the Dóchas centre. Upgrading our prison facilities is hugely important. I am glad to see that Members present - although it is not a full house by any means - have considered views on how we should treat prisoners. God knows, prison is often a very lonely place. In the current circumstances, we need to move ahead with this. I commend the Bill to the House.
