I move:

That, pursuant to subsection 2° of section 2 of Article 25 of the Constitution, Seanad Éireann concurs with the Government in a request to the President to sign the Maternity Protection Bill 2024 on a date which is earlier than the fifth day after the date on which the Bill shall have been presented to him.

I thank the Minister for attending. It is nice when legislation has support from all sides. He worked hard to get here. I congratulate him and his officials in that regard. Equally, I congratulate and thank all the Members for their participation in a process that has brought this matter to a successful conclusion.

When is it proposed to sit again?

At 1 p.m. on Tuesday, 5 November 2024.

Is that agreed? Agreed.
