Rwandan Massacre Commemoration.

Mr. Finneran

On a point of order, are we requested to suspend proceedings for a minute's silence at this time?

Chairman

I understand that will happen in the Dáil Chamber.

Mr. Finneran

Is that confined to the Dáil Chamber?

Chairman

I understand it is.

Ms Burton

I propose that we also have a minute's silence.

Chairman

I propose we observe a minute's silence, in line with that proposed in Dáil Chamber, to commemorate the victims of the genocide in Rwanda and business shall resume thereafter.

Members rose.
