Senator Darragh O'Brien asked if the Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government, Deputy Paudie Coffey, would come to the House to discuss and update us on the pyrite scheme. I know that the Minister of State has agreed to come to discuss the issue of social housing and we may encompass the pyrite scheme within that debate.

Fianna Fáil is to publish a public order Bill. I am glad to see the party coming up with policies.

It is the 89th piece of legislation we have published.

It is very welcome, but a public order task force for the capital is an operational matter for the Garda Commissioner. I share the Senator's sentiments about taking back ownership of the streets. I commend gardaí for the work they are doing. Extra resources are beginning to come on stream. I admit that they are long overdue, but it is to be hoped they will help to tackle the problems with public order.

Senator Denis Landy and several others spoke about the Dunnes Stores dispute. This matter was raised on the Order of Business on Tuesday by a couple of Senators. I encouraged both parties to engage with the industrial relations services of the State and again call on them to do so to resolve their differences. Dunnes Stores is a very successful family business and it is its duty to ensure the grievances of its workers are listened to and that the welfare of their families is taken into account.

Senator Denis Landy also raised the issue of narcolepsy, which was the subject of a Commencement debate. The Minister for Health or his officials should ensure a resolution with those involved. I agree with the sentiments expressed by the Senator as well as by Senator John Whelan on the matter.

Senator Denis Landy and several others referred to the presidential pardon suggested for Harry Gleeson. Members have made excellent contributions on this matter. It is good that justice is being seen to be done after such a long time. I compliment everyone involved in the campaign. As Senator Labhrás Ó Murchú kindly did, I thank the former Minister for Justice and Equality, Deputy Alan Shatter, for taking on board many of the issues raised. The current Minister, Deputy Frances Fitzgerald, has continued that work and everyone is glad that justice is being done at last. However, there are people who know who was involved in the murder and we ask them to come forward.

It is too late now.

It is unlikely that they will after 75 years, but one never knows. As to a presidential pardon, what the President wishes to do is a matter for him. I would not like to be involved in urging him to do one thing or another, but I am sure that, being the man that he is, he will do the right thing in that regard. He has taken a personal interest in the case.

Senator Eamonn Coghlan referred to the Points for Life initiative and the need to encourage young people to engage in more physical activity. He called for joined-up thinking in several Departments. I agree with him and will help him in any way possible to bring the Departments involved together to ensure the Points for Life initiative is expanded beyond the pilot projects.

Senator Sean D. Barrett discussed the abstentionist policy of Sinn Féin at Westminster. I encourage Sinn Féin to take its seats there. Obviously, the policy does not exclude it from taking expenses.

It is good at it. The Leader is right.

I urge Sinn Féin's MPs to take their seats and represent their constituents, but that is a matter for Sinn Féin which has its own way of running things.

Senator Paschal Mooney raised the issue of Aer Lingus, the interline agreement with Virgin Atlantic and the implications of a takeover for inward tourism, in particular. I will bring the matter to the attention of the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport, Deputy Paschal Donohoe.

Senator Jillian van Turnhout referred to the plight of health and disability organisations and the need for a more positive response. I am sure she will continue to raise the matter until it is resolved.

Senator Michael Mullins called for a debate on the Action Plan for Jobs. Forty months of decreases in the unemployment figures have brought us to a rate of 10%, but there is much more to be done. I will again ask the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation, Deputy Richard Bruton, to attend the House to discuss the question of employment.

Senator Gerard P. Craughwell holds an opinion on the Freedom of Information Act. He can contribute to the debate today. The water conservation grant has been welcomed by the majority and I hope it will be paid by September.
