I move:

That, pursuant to subsection 2° of section 2 of Article 25 of the Constitution, Seanad Éireann concurs with the Government in a request to the President to sign the Bretton Woods Agreements (Amendment) Bill 2011 on a date which is earlier than the fifth day after the date on which the Bill shall have been presented to her.

I thank Senators for their co-operation in expeditiously passing the Bill, which is a significant component of the work that is left for this Oireachtas to do. I also thank speakers for their good wishes, which I reciprocate, whatever political path they propose to follow in the immediate future.
