I thank Deputy Connolly. That concludes the first part of this debate. At the outset, I asked Members to stay within certain parameters. Some Members may have pushed towards the boundaries, but I accept that Deputies have respected the request I made. Deputy Griffin wishes to advise me that he does not think that is the case.

Have a little respect. The Deputy should resume his seat. He cannot purport to move a point of order and then proceed to make a political charge. There is no provision for that in the process in which we are involved. I am sure the Deputy learned to follow procedures in Europe. He will have to follow the same sort of procedures here.

The Deputy must resume his seat. If he wants to find some other avenue to pursue that matter, find it. However, it does not exist here and now. We are going to hear the Minister now with a five-minute wrap-up contribution.

There are 15 minutes remaining before we must begin the wrap-up. May I clarify whether Deputy Gino Kenny is looking to get in? Yes. We therefore have three Members to speak over 15 minutes. We will proceed with Deputy Ó Murchú, then Deputy Martin Browne and then Deputy Gino Kenny.

Mental Health Parity of Esteem Bill 2020: Second Stage [Private Members]
I congratulate everyone involved with this Bill. I congratulate Deputy Ward for bringing forward legislation that is very constructive and helpful and the Minister of State for having the foresight to accept it. What we have seen here this evening is democracy working constructively and Members working collegiately together. The more of that we see, the better for all of us into the future.
