Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I thank the Deputy. I am not sure if it is fair to characterise it as a tactic. As a Government, we do not want to divide the House on an issue on which we should all be united precisely so that nobody tries to use children as a political football. That is why we decided not to oppose the Deputy's motion.
