I welcome the Minister of State at the Departments of the Taoiseach and Defence, Deputy Kehoe. We will have contributions from group spokespersons of up to eight minutes, all other Senators up to five minutes and the Minister of State to be called to reply when no other Senators are offering to speak. At the moment I have listed Senators Leyden, Craughwell, Buttimer, Dolan and Ó Donnghaile. I call the Minister of State.
