Those who suggest nothing is being done should be aware of these capital projects which are only a small part of the commemorations.

Senator David Cullinane referred to the dispute at Dunnes Stores. I hope Dunnes Stores will engage with its workers and use the labour relations mechanisms of the State to solve its problems.

Senator Michael Mullins referred to the pledge made by Ireland to provide €12 million in humanitarian relief in Syria. As he rightly pointed out, there is a need for the international community to redouble its efforts to resolve this appalling issue, the effects of which we witness on our screens on a nightly basis.

Senator Fidelma Healy Eames supported the comments made by Senator Michael Mullins and also welcomed the extra support provided for children with Down's syndrome.

In regard to Yeats 2015, marking the 150th anniversary of the birth of William Butler Yeats, I am not sure what we can do, but we can organise a debate to mark the occasion. William Butler Yeats should be commemorated in this House, of which he was a Member. I do not know what we can do, but we will try to arrange something.

Senator Denis Landy referred to and called for a debate on the three-year plan for tourism. The need for such a debate has been highlighted by a number of Members. I am sure the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Paschal Donohoe, a former Member of the House, who has come here on many occasions will be willing to do so again to discuss this important sector.

Senator Sean D. Barrett welcomed the fact that Ulster Bank and An Post were coming together to provide banking services at An Post. This has to be a good development for An Post. I remind Members that, as requested, we will be having a debate on social protection which will be taken by the Minister of State at the Department of Social Protection, Deputy Kevin Humphreys, in the context of letters issued by the Department asking people for their bank details. I think the Minister of State will have a positive response for Members on Thursday.

My voice is gone. I knew that the debate had gone on for too long. I ask the Leas-Cathaoirleach to excuse me. I will respond tomorrow to other matters raised.
