============================================================

Mark Duffy (FG), Labour Panel

Before I begin, I also welcome Adam Coyle to the House. As a Mayo Senator, it is always great to welcome visitors with connections to the county. Those connections have grown over the past few months since the all-Ireland win.
The Order of Business is No. 1, motion regarding proposed approval by Seanad Éireann of the proposal for a Council decision on the conclusion of the agreement between the European Union and the Federal Republic of Nigeria on the return and readmission of persons who do not, or no longer, fulfil the conditions for entry, presence, or residence in the territory of either party, and No. 2, motion regarding proposed approval by Seanad Éireann of the proposal for a Council decision on the signing of the agreement between the European Union and the Federal Republic of Nigeria on the return and readmission of persons who do not, or no longer, fulfil the conditions for entry, presence, or residence in the territory of either party, to be discussed together and to be taken at 3.30 p.m. and to conclude at 4.30 p.m., if not previously concluded, with the time allocated to the opening remarks of the Minister not to exceed five minutes, all Senators not to exceed five minutes each, and the Minister to be given no less than five minutes to reply to the debate; and No. 70, motion 6, Private Members' business, motion regarding fuel and energy costs to be taken at 5 p.m., with the time allocated to this debate not to exceed two hours.
