I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Peter Burke. He has made a number of previous visits to the House. Before we commence, I remind Senators that a Senator may speak only once on Report Stage, except the proposer of an amendment who may reply to the discussion on the amendment. Also on Report Stage, each non-Government amendment must be seconded.

Amendment No. 1 in the names of Senators Boyhan, Keogan, Craughwell and McDowell arises out of committee proceedings. Amendments Nos. 1 to 5, inclusive, are related and amendments Nos. 2 to 5, inclusive, are physical alternatives to amendment No. 1, therefore, amendments Nos. 1 to 5, inclusive, may be discussed together by agreement. Is that agreed? Agreed.
