I would like to put on record the congratulations of the House to Senator O'Sullivan on her election last night as Mayor of Limerick. I wish her a successful year in office. I would also like to put on record my thanks to people on both sides of the House and all those who play a part in ensuring that this House operates as it should. I thank everybody for what I would like to think was a successful session of the Seanad.
Today's Order of Business is Item 1, statements on the Opsahl report, from 3 p.m. to 5 p.m. with 20 minutes per spokesperson and ten minutes thereafter. It is intended to leave that report on the Order Paper. Unfortunately, Senator Wilson is not here today for various reasons and it would give him and others a chance to debate this important issue in the autumn. Item 2, statements on Aer Lingus will be taken from 5 p.m. to 6.30 p.m. and I am suggesting ten minutes per spokesperson and five minutes thereafter. The Minister will speak initially and would like an opportunity to reply to the debate——
