On a point of order, I wish to apologise on behalf of Deputy Nolan who has a priority question down but cannot be here today as he has been called away on business. I understand that if the person who has tabled the priority question is not present it cannot be dealt with.

That is so.

I want to apologise then, on behalf of Deputy Nolan, who cannot be here.

It may well transpire that that question, which is the last remaining priority question, will be taken by the Chair in ordinary time.

Thank you.
