Of the matters raised by the Senators suitable for discussion, I have selected Senators Warfield, Gallagher, Boyhan and Lombard and they will be taken now. I regret I had to rule out of order the matters raised by Senators Conway and Currie as the relevant Minister has no official responsibility for the matters raised. The other Senators may give notice on another day of the matters they wish to raise.

I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy English, to the House who will take all the Commencement Matter items today.

Before I call on the Minister of State and the Senator Warfield, I welcome to the Distinguished Visitors Gallery our guests from Los Angeles, Houston and Washington DC, friends of Michael P. O'Neill, a great friend of Ireland.
