The Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment apologises for her absence. She is out of town on business and cannot attend and has asked the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment, Deputy Tom Kitt, to take the debate. I welcome the Minister of State and his officials.
It has been suggested that we might consider the Bill further on Monday, 20 March. I am awaiting communication from Deputies in that regard, but we will make provisional arrangements to hold a meeting on that date. Also, we will make provisional arrangements to hold a meeting on Tuesday, 21 March.
