I join colleagues in deploring the throwing of a coffin bearing the image of the late Martin McGuinness onto a bonfire in the North of Ireland last night. I find it very sad that anyone should rejoice in the death of another human being. I also think these bonfires are out of control. I have seen photographs of some of them and they were enormous. One of them was located next to a petrol station, which is madness. The Government in Northern Ireland should put in place proper controls and limitations in regard to these bonfires.

I also ask that the House note that Royal Dutch Shell has announced that it is selling its stake in Corrib gas to a Canadian company for €1.08 billion.

Hear, hear.

The initial process and series of transactions involved in the Corrib gas field were a disgrace to this country.

Hear, hear.

There was something very fishy about that process and I would like somebody to get to the bottom of who was paid off and whose palms were greased in this nasty little deal. The €1.08 billion accruing from that sale should go to the Irish taxpayer and not Royal Dutch Shell.

Hear, hear.

This shows how much money is involved and how much the Irish people have been cheated of.
