On Tuesday, I raised the issue of SUSI and a student who had been suspended from Queens University Belfast. I resolved that issue. We often hear Senators saying they do not have much power or influence. I can tell them we have. It is a matter of using it.

There is confusion in the communication between SUSI and Queens University Belfast. The university has asked me to intervene, but that is a matter for the Minister. I thank the Minister's office for being so helpful. SUSI has also been helpful. One official, however, told me he could not communicate with me because that would breach the Data Protection Act. This was despite the fact that the student in question is my godson. Any public representative who makes representation does so in the interest of an individual. Communications between a public representative and a Department or agency should be exempt from data protection regulations. I put this to the office of the Minister for Education and Skills and they may resolve the matter.

I also thank Ms Orla Russell of Queens University Belfast. The good news is that the suspension has been lifted and the student is restored to his studies, as of this morning. As I raised this matter on Tuesday, I am grateful for the opportunity to thank all who influenced the situation, including the Leader and his staff.

I wish Senator Norris every success with his book which is doing well. Of course, former Senator Mary O'Rourke's book is also doing well. Senator Norris is a Member of the House. His book is unique and would make a wonderful Christmas present for family and friends.

The Senator is completely out of order to advertise books on the Order of Business.

I am not advertising a book. I am advertising Senator David Norris in person. The likes of him will never be seen again.

The Senator is out of order, nevertheless.

I urge Senators to take the opportunity of having a copy of the book signed by what I regard as the equivalent of Oscar Wilde.
