Senator Ivana Bacik referred to the forum on homelessness. Many Senators have spoken about it and we had an excellent debate in the House last evening on the matter. As Senator Diarmuid Wilson stated, in the new year we should receive an update on the forum which is meeting today. I understand the Minister of State, Deputy Paudie Coffey, has given an undertaking that he will come to the House to provide that update.

Senator Ivana Bacik also called for regular updates on job creation and employment. We had a constructive debate yesterday with the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Deputy Richard Bruton, and I assure the Senator that we will have many more in the new term.

Members on this side ruffled his feathers somewhat.

The Leader to continue, without interruption.
