I have turned off my own phone. The usual rules on phones apply. Apologies have been received from Deputy Dara Murphy and Senator Colette Kelleher. We note that Senator Jerry Buttimer is currently in the Seanad. I propose that we go into private session to deal with certain matters. Is that agreed? Agreed.
