I do not want to jinx it, but I think there is a compelling case for providing flexibility in terms of people being able to watch us qualify for the World Cup and then, God willing, get to the World Cup. I wish our team all the very best starting next week in what is a crucial period of time for Irish soccer. The Deputy's point is a really important one and it is also an economic point. When people come to our country, they want to be able to access our hospitality. We need to make these things as simple as possibl…

I move amendment No. 1: To delete all words after "Dáil Éireann" and substitute the following: "notes that, the Government: - remains deeply concerned about the escalating conflict in the Middle East and the Gulf; - affirms Ireland's long track-record of support for international law and the United Nations; - continues to seek de-escalation through dialogue and diplomacy so that these issues can be resolved; - is acutely aware of the impact on households and businesses of the recent increases in fuel prices, and is…

It will be quicker than any legislation Sinn Féin is bringing forward which is not before this-----

Cathaoirleach, may I speak on a very important issue? I want to work in a collaborative fashion. I do not need to be shouted down. It is an important issue, Deputy Doherty.

We will act-----

Please, Pearse, on some occasions just park the partisanship, just the odd time. We will act.

There will be decisions taken by this Government before this Sinn Féin motion even arises for a vote.

There is no vote tonight.

There is no vote tonight-----

-----and there is no legislation. A number of Sinn Féin TDs have said-----

A number of Sinn Féin TDs have said there is legislation before the House tonight. There is no law. For people watching, there is no Sinn Féin law before this House tonight. There is a motion. The motion brings forward-----

I am aware.

There is no legislation.

A Chathaoirleach Gníomhach, I am sorry but-----

You did.

For the benefit of Deputy Doherty's hearing, we have already said very clearly this evening that we will act. I have already said the Government will act in a responsible manner.

I have already said the Government will take that decision at the next Cabinet meeting and I have already said that would be before the final vote on the Sinn Féin motion. That is what I have said. Not everything has to be partisan. Not everything has to be shouting and noise. As I heard the Sinn Féin First Minister of Northern Ireland say today, maybe a little less noise and more working together. I think that is sage advice from Sinn Féin on this occasion too. Maybe let us apply it to here and not take a partitio…

We are going to it. We are going to.

Thank God for Sinn Féin. We would be lost without you.

I have identified when.
