I will be brief and I know the Minister is very patient in this regard. Those elected to the previous Seanad state this Seanad is very hard-working and its Members are very dedicated. Asking for this expenditure to be realigned is evidence of our desire to work harder and be more effective. With more people doing more with less we are asking for this to be taken into account in the spirit of reform which the Minister has brought very clearly to his Ministry, and we would appreciate if he might consider it.
