The turf is being cut now.

Is it all right for the pig farmers?

Was the Taoiseach burning turf in Courtmacsherry?

As the Ceann Comhairle knows, I have been asking at the Business Committee for weeks to have a full and comprehensive debate on agriculture, including the pig industry – you name it. The Taoiseach said earlier that he believed we would come back relaxed after Easter. We would be only for the Mutt and Turf Show and the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications, Deputy Eamon Ryan, talking on every radio station about locking up grannies and anybody who gave a bag of turf to their neighbours. We need a …

That is funny. The Taoiseach should talk to his Tánaiste.

The Taoiseach is on the green tea.

The Taoiseach is drinking too much green tea.

What about the people?

Pass the parcel.

The Taoiseach and all Members know the past two years have been a torrid time for both young and old. It has been particularly torrid time for children with additional needs. I am asking the Taoiseach about St. Rita's in Clonmel, which is a respite centre for the holiday period. There are people in Tipperary and many other areas of the south east who need certainty as to whether they will have a place to go to during the summer to get care. These centres do fabulous work and provide fabulous supports for these chil…

They need certainty.

I move: That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide for a sui generis Debt Management Protocol for the farming sector— A. to provide for the disaggregation of lands charged with repayment of farm debt into two parcels, the "Farmlands" and the "Farmhouse", B. that debt secured on the parcel designated as the farmhouse be governed by the legislation, general law, and regulatory codes of conduct pertaining to a debtor's principal place of residence, and to take account of the special position …

I move "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."

I welcome Councillor Frankie Daly, from Limerick, and his guests to the Visitors Gallery. It is nice to see guests back here again. Irish electricity prices are the fourth most expensive in the EU. They are 23% above the EU average. Only Germany, Denmark and Belgium beat us. It is price gouging and it is a despicable attack on all our citizens, who feel hopeless and hapless. Inflation, as we note today, is at a 22-year high. The Government's inaction is startling. The issue is affecting every sector of Irish societ…

A three-card trick.

I salute all the ESB crews and acknowledge their hard work, especially during storms or outages. Where is the Commission for Regulation of Utilities? What is its role? Is there just a fancy brass plaque on the wall, posh sheets and a board of members of a quango? It is standing idly by. It is useless, toothless and fruitless. That is what they are. The Tánaiste said "if it sees the ESB..." Everyone can see the ESB is fleecing people. How long is the Tánaiste going to wait to find out? You try to raise a family and …

A great job. A special job for him.

Well, I question it.

I thank the Ceann Comhairle for his advice but I question it.

A job for life and a pension as well.
