And to me.

Senators Mark Daly, Boyhan and Conway-Walsh referenced the Moorhead report. Be it as members of the electorate or as members of political bodies, we all understand the importance of politics and representation at local and national levels while also recognising the gargantuan change in the workload and commitment of those elected to local councils.

I join Members in calling for fair pay and conditions for councillors. Members on all sides of this House have been articulating and advocating on this issue with a variety of Ministers. There is a folly in the Sinn Féin position yet again. Sinn Féin thrives on polarising people. Councillors versus Senators and Deputies and Senators and Deputies versus councillors is not a way to do business.

It is about fairness and equality. It is not polarising.

Order, please.

The Sinn Féin Party thrives on dividing and conquering.

It is not polarising. How can the Leader say it is polarising in the context of-----

Sinn Féin pits one group against another group. That is what it does. In this case, we must not divide and conquer. Rather we must work together to ensure that arising out of the Moorhead report, councillors receive just and fair pay.

Hear, hear.

That is what we should do.

Take the €1.5 million from the will.

We could pay all of the councillors in the country with that amount.

Senators are being very generous.
