I accept that you are guided by the rules of the House, a Cheann Comhairle, but I request you to ask the Committee on Procedure and Privileges to amend Standing Orders so that constituency colleagues can contribute during expressions of sympathy.
Order of Business (Resumed).

I have much confidence in you, a Cheann Comhairle.
