On the question raised by Senator Harte, I think he raises a valid point and we will take that on board at a Committee on Procedure and Privileges meeting immediately after the Order of Business concludes. The Order of Business for today is Item No. 1.
Order of Business.
An Leas-Chathaoirleach
Is the Order of Business agreed? Agreed.
Perhaps you can direct me on this matter which I formally raised with the Cathaoirleach yesterday. We are very honoured indeed to be back in this Chamber, particularly as the National Flag is here, but could I ask if any provision will be made for the placing of the Seal of Ireland in this House along side the National Flag?
An Leas-Chathaoirleach
That would be a matter for the Committee on Procedure and Privileges to take up. Perhaps your colleagues might do that.
I am scheduled for another meeting. I am not walking out in protest.
An Leas-Chathaoirleach
Many thanks, Senator Harte. While we are waiting for the Minister to arrive, I should like to say that, in dealing with the points I raised earlier I should have included the approaches to the Clerk's desk. I would hope Senators would bear that in mind.
