Senator Susan O'Keeffe referred to the helpline for the fodder crisis and complimented the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine and the co-ops that have worked together on this matter.

As regards the debate on lifestyle and cancer and the public consultation report, on a number of occasions I have requested the Minister for Health to address this issue in the House. I have not yet received a positive reply, but I can assure Senators that I will continue to press the Minister to come here for such a debate. The public consultation report was a very good one. It was concise and dealt with the relevant facts and figures. Other Members have spoken about obesity. In that regard, Senator Aideen Hayden referred to fizzy drinks and vending machines in schools and other areas under State control. It is all part of the public consultation on lifestyle and cancer that we have had. I hope the Minister will attend the House soon to address the issue.

Members have rightly praised Senator Sean D. Barrett for the Financial Stability and Reform Bill which was introduced yesterday. There is obviously a need to regulate this sector further, as has been pointed out by the Senator. I was pleased that the Minister ultimately decided to accept the measure, although it was not the advice he was given coming into the House. There is no question but that we should adopt best practice, of which the Minister of State, Deputy Brian Hayes, is certainly supportive. I hope the legislation will not be left there and that we will see some action on it.

Senator Labhrás Ó Murchú raised some points about banks which I have addressed. In addition, I have addressed Senator Aideen Hayden's comments on childhood obesity. I hope we will get the Minister into the House to debate that issue.

Senator David Norris spoke about proper and focused reform of the financial sector. The Job Shadow programme was mentioned by Senator Martin Conway yesterday, as well as the 1 million trees project which was also referred to by a number of Senators on the Order of Business yesterday.

Senator Jimmy Harte has reminded us that members of the Opposition have very short memories, but we will leave that point stand.

What did he say again?

He said they had very short memories.

I did not quite hear it. Perhaps the Leader might repeat it.
