I thank the Tánaiste. Last but by no means least, I call Deputy English.

I thank Deputy English. We wish him well in the next phase of his career.

Before we conclude, I thank members of the Government, leaders of the political parties and all Members for their friendship and co-operation throughout the period of the Thirty-third Dáil. I have thoroughly enjoyed the job and working with all the Deputies. I might get a bit frustrated from time to time but not as frustrated as some of the Deputies become on occasion as they seek to advance their programmes and cases. I of course wish the members retiring well. Many of them are going to face new challenges in life…

Leis sin ráite, tá muid chun sos a ghlacadh ar feadh 40 nóiméad. You might have noticed we are a bit over time.

I am grateful to the Minister of State for being here to deal with this important issue. I acknowledge Deputy Durkan, who has managed to make the debate on Castletown an almost weekly event in the House.

If we were to express some regret, it is that progress has been slow on the part of the OPW. I do not know if the OPW knows exactly who it is dealing with when it is dealing with Deputy Durkan because in his long and distinguished career in this House, by God, he has shown a persistence like no other. We assume he will be pursuing the same matter in the next Dáil if it continues to be a problem, and we hope it does not.

Táimid tagtha chun deiridh le clár oibre an lae inniu, clár oibre na seachtaine agus deiridh na hoibre don Tríú Dáil is Tríocha. Arís, gabhaim buíochas le gach ball den fhoireann as ucht na cabhrach a thug siad dúinn le blianta beaga anuas. Tréaslaím leo an sárobair a dhéanann siad. Go n-éirí go geal le gach ball, iad siúd atá ag éirí as agus iad siúd atá ag dul ar aghaidh arís ag iarraidh teacht thar n-ais go dtí an an Ceathrú Dáil is Tríocha. Leis sin, tá an Dáil ar athló sine die . Go raibh míle maith agaibh.

I thank Deputy McDonald.

I thank the Deputy.

I thank Members. We are moving on-----

Please Deputies. We move to Deputy Holly Cairns, leader of the Social Democrats.

I thank the Deputy.

I thank the Deputy.

Please, Deputy Cairns.

Thank you, Taoiseach.

Please let the Taoiseach answer.

We all join the Deputy in that.

Hear, hear.

I thank the Taoiseach. I just want to refer to something. The case raised by Deputy Conway-Walsh is obviously utterly heartbreaking. In the past year or so, we have had an increasing number of very personally tragic cases being brought to the attention of the House. I think the next Dáil will need to find a way in which submissions can be made on these, rather than them being discussed. I see the necessity-----

We need an effective way-----
