The matters raised by the Senators are suitable for discussion and I have selected Senators Maria Byrne, Dolan, and Ó Donnghaile and Currie, who will be sharing time, and they will be taken now. Senator Murphy has withdrawn his Commencement matter, which I had originally selected. The other Senators may give notice on another day on the matters which they wish to raise.
