We are not quorate at the moment. We do not have enough Senators in here for a quorum. Maybe we do not need a quorum for something like this but I would consider it very important. I would point out that legislation was passed by the Seanad in respect of a franchise for graduates of third level institutions and universities to have a vote. Unless I am wrong that legislation was passed by the last Seanad. Unlike, as Senator Wilson said, it was not just for university students but for all third level students, from grade 8 up.
