Before I call the next speaker, I welcome guests of Senator McCarthy - pupils from St. Patrick's National School in Greystones and their principal Rachel Harper. They are most welcome to Seanad Éireann. As is the rule of Seanad Éireann, and Senator McCarthy was discussing this with me earlier, there will be no homework for the rest of the week of their visit to Seanad Éireann. If there any problems with that, they can take it up with Senator McCarthy.

I welcome to the Gallery Sam Burke, a guest of the Leas-Chathaoireach, Senator Maria Byrne, who is here with us today. I thank him for being here. I call Senator Byrne.

Sorry, yes, Senator Cathal Byrne.

I thank the Senator and everyone from Greystones for that great initiative. It could be replicated by many others.

I join the Senator in congratulating them for getting to the summit of the highest mountain in the world. That is quite an achievement. When Sir Edmund Hillary made it to the top, he was asked why he did it, and he said, "Because it is there." That was his explanation for climbing the mountain and putting himself and everybody else at risk by trying to get to the top. Why did he climb it? "Because it is there", he said.

I certainly will not bring a whistle. I thank the Senator for the heads up.

The Minister of State will be coming back in a while. There are other speakers as well. Next up is Senator Harmon. The Minister of State will come back shortly.

The Minister of State will be back. I call Senator Harmon.

Before we move on, I welcome the Rebel Tappers, a dance troupe from Cork who are here with Deputy Séamus McGrath. They are most welcome to Seanad Éireann.

Before I call the next speaker, I welcome the guests of Deputy Noel McCarthy. I also welcome the guests of the Minister of State, Deputy Moynihan, from Liscaroll. I hope they enjoy their visit.

Before I call the next speaker, I welcome Deputy Richard O’Donoghue and a group from Limerick, in Bulgaden. I welcome them all to the Public Gallery. I call Senator Andrews.

Does Senator Collins wish to come in on this section?

We are on section 2. Senator Collins is referring to amendments in another section. I will, however, allow latitude because-----

I know but we have not reached them yet. Senators will be able to speak on amendments ruled out of order when we speak to that section.

Amendment No. 39 was ruled out of order because once the House agreed on Second Stage that this is the principle of the Bill, then-----

It is in the grouping list. Have we the grouping list to hand?

We will try to get that information. Due to the 48-hour rule in relation to amendments, many Senators only received notice today, but staff were working all last night going through them.

I am allowing latitude.

I am just allowing latitude. There is a grouping list. I will ensure it is circulated.

I thank the Senator. Senator Collins may continue.
