============================================================

Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I thank Deputies for their contributions. In relation to the EU migration pact, let us be really clear: we will have a very long debate in this House, we will have a vote in this House and there will be ample opportunity for that.
For those who are watching in, the motion that is before us today is simply to refer the pact to the committee for scrutiny. That is what we generally do. It goes to a committee, it is scrutinised at a committee, and it will come back here before the Dáil. Let me assure Deputies on the record of the House that when it comes back, not only will we wish to fulfil their requests, but we wish to have a proper debate on the migration pact because it will be very interesting to see how different people wish to grapple with the issue of migration. There is a lot of very important stuff in the EU migration pact. I am committing plenty of time in the Dáil for this, and of course it will also happen in the Seanad-----
