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

Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I addressed this matter yesterday. I also note what the Ceann Comhairle has said in recent days and very much respect that.
What I want to say, to be helpful to the House, is a disciplinary process will commence. I do not want to say anything that in any way cuts across that or, indeed, impedes on people's privacy and the need to respect the person's privacy in terms of the woman here as well, but I expect the highest standards to be upheld and I expect all of these issues to be considered as part of that process. We are talking about an incident that occurred and was addressed by my party some years prior to my leadership but there is a disciplinary process and I do not want to say anything that cuts across that due process.
