Bar yourself.

That is not what it is about.

We are.

Is Deputy Lowry a Government TD?

They need to convey why they are breaking their word to the Opposition. They told us on the day, on the floor here. You made the commitment it would be an agreement.

Tell us now why you are breaking your word. What did that guy do to you in between?

You said there would be agreement so stand up and say it. You can laugh all you want, Michéal, but it is not funny. It is not funny what you are doing.

I will finish on this point. Jack has not had any physiotherapy or speech and language therapy from the HSE for a year and a half even though the Department made a promise in front of that child that he would get the services. It is scandalous. Where is the accountability? How did this happen under the Tánaiste's watch? When is this money going to be released to these families from these organisations?

The National Claims Information Database was published today by the Central Bank of Ireland. It shows eye-watering profits by the insurance industry again. This is on the backs of ordinary people, community groups, sports organisations and small businesses the length and breadth. They have seen their premiums go up every single year.
