We all value our children, particularly the children who died in Berkeley. I want especially to remember Eoghan Culligan from Rathfarnham, my own area. Ballyboden-St. Enda's, our local GAA club, put out a great tribute to him, saying that he was one of its star GAA players. I also sympathise with his parents, Gerry and Marie, his brothers Stephen and Andrew, and his girlfriend. I want to remember them all, and the families of all the children. The last speaker spoke about valuing our children and it is very important to value our children, both living and dead.

I was a councillor for 20 years. Everyone on this side of the House has been speaking for councillors. I have asked for a debate on this, and the Leader will verify that when he replies. Another former councillor, Senator Denis Landy, also asked for a debate on that, prior to Senator Coghlan asking for one.
