I thank the Minister. Fifty-five acres is a substantial area for the new Wexford campus. I spoke recently with Professor Veronica Campbell, as the Minister mentioned. I believe she is looking for €7 million to progress the SETU planning application. I heard the Minister say to Deputy Mairéad Farrell that he had allocated €1 million to further applications. Perhaps I have that wrong and the Minister might have been referring only to student accommodation. Wexford is very close to my heart, apart from the fact that I…

Rosslare Europort has today been named port of the year in Malmö, Sweden. I congratulate those involved. I am glad to have played my part. A young scientist, biochemical engineer or something of that nature from Waterford is doing research in my village of Ramsgrange. A local farmer has given him land to carry out research on carbon capturing. That is a Waterford chap working in County Wexford. We must have the capacity to combine with the Department of the Environment, Climate and Communications and the Department…

I note the Minister's comments earlier on CHI at Temple Street and his sympathies to the parents of the children. I have a number of parents who believe they are outside of the scope of the current investigation but who are nonetheless affected because their children are within the orthopaedic paediatric setting. Their children are affected in other parts of the body, not by spina bifida, although one has a child with spina bifida and has not been contacted. They are in deep distress; they are contacting the helpli…

They were sent.

I understand we must have a suspension of the sitting because the Minister and the sponsor of the Private Members' business, which is up next, are still at the housing committee.

We now move to the Regional Group and Deputy Lowry. The Deputy has eight minutes.

The Deputy should stick to the topic. His time is up.

I want to discuss with the Taoiseach the School Leavers Ability Project: creating expectations, exploring choices and supporting transitions. Initially, this School Leavers Ability Project started in 2018 and for the following three years it was funded by Pobal. In the past three years it has been funded through the dormant account fund but that funding will be coming to an end in December of this year. A very small team has been set up in Cumas New Ross which has four facilitators who have helped students with a d…

I appreciate that there would not be a better answer. It is more about considering the impact if the funding is not renewed. The other two-year programme the Taoiseach mentioned is probably similar because this one starts in the second last year of school. I am greatly concerned about the people who have entered the programme; if the funding ceases in December they will not be able to complete it. In essence 556 people have been supported with a relatively small budget and a small staff, and over 60% of them now ar…

Is the Bill opposed?

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

It appears there are three motions and it is the third of these that there is an issue with.

Is it possible to agree the first two motions and defer the third?

Is that agreed? Agreed.

Deputy Ó Broin has made his point. Does anyone else wish to speak?

I appreciate that and I will now put the question.

Next, we have the Regional Group and Deputy Cathal Berry.

Excuse me, I need to put my glasses back on. For People Before Profit-Solidarity, I call on Deputy Boyd Barrett. Who would forget him?

For the Regional Group, I call Deputy Berry. Is the Deputy sharing time? He is down to share.

Deputy, we are at the point where-----
