The Leader promised me a year or two ago that we would have a debate in the Chamber on the persecution of Christians in certain parts of the planet. It is a critical issue. A debate in the House for a couple of hours would be worthy and it might highlight the appalling plight of Christians in certain parts of the world who are demonised, executed or forced to give up their religion. We should have such a debate at the Leader's early convenience.
What is the status of the proposed sea fisheries amendment Bill? Is it likely to come before this House or is it lost at sea, to coin a phrase? I have a very strong interest in the matter and I ask the Leader to ascertain the status of the Bill and when it is likely to come before the Seanad.
