I call on the Leader of the House to consider dealing with a Bill in this House, if it is passed by the Dáil. I am referring to the Deputy Niall Collins's Bill relating to the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission. We should put in safeguards. I had thought the intrusion and tapping of telephones was something we left in the 1980s. Now, it has come about again that the Garda Síochána Ombudsman Commission has authorised the tapping of the telephones of Conor Feehan of the Herald, Senan Molony of the Daily Mail and Michael Clifford.
