I accept the concern expressed by Deputy Kelly about the issue of special coins, collectors pieces and so on. Over the last two years I have examined a number of proposals to issue coins, medals, tokens or whatever of that kind and I have not been convinced that the case would be, as is usually claimed by the promoters, that they would become very popular collectors pieces and that there would be a lot of money for the State. I am not alone in having drawn that conclusion because I know that a number of those proposals or very similar proposals were made to my predecessors.

In relation to the last request by Deputy Kelly I can assure the House that I am an extremely approachable person and if Deputy Kelly and any other colleagues wish to come to see me to speak about this I will be only too happy to see them on condition that, if the group that Deputy Kelly brings together consists of more than one party, we will not have the same kind of farcial intervention from the other side of the House that we had earlier on today or yesterday in relation to an all-party deputation.
