I want to raise the issue of the Minister with responsibility for school transport to come before the Dáil to answer questions on the shambles of school transport all over the country.

Regarding other events all over the world and indeed in our own country, we as politicians, must unite against them, no matter where we come from in the political spectrum. Independent Ireland has written to the Ceann Comhairle asking for a minute's silence here today for Charlie Kirk, who was brutally assassinated last week.

Shame on you.

We ask for this not alone for Charlie Kirk but for every person or politician who has been attacked or threatened in any way while carrying out their duty. We ask to unite against the threat by standing here together with a minute's silence.

What about Melissa Hortman? There was no minute of silence. The Deputy is an absolute disgrace.

We move now to Deputy McDonald. Deputy Danny Healy-Rae is not in a technical group.

I am in a group.

You are but-----

No, you are not.

You are on this side of the House now.

Deputy Healy-Rae, please.

You are sitting on the wrong side of the House now.
