Thank you, Deputy Lahart.

Deputy Lahart, your time is up.

We are out of time. However, there are two remaining Deputies so I propose to give them both 30 seconds to pose their questions and the Taoiseach will respond to both together.

Will the Taoiseach respond to Deputy Kenny?

That concludes questions on policy or legislation.

The Select Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure, Public Services Reform and Digitalisation, and Taoiseach has completed its consideration of the following Revised Estimates for Public Services for the service of the year ending 31 December 2025: Votes 7 to 10, inclusive.

Is the Bill opposed?

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.

I thank the Deputy.

I now call the Minister, Deputy Browne, to make his concluding statement.

Thank you, Deputy.

Thank you, Deputy.

You are in your other Deputy's time.

Thank you Deputy, your time is up.

Deputy Gould can address that in his closing contribution.

Time is up, Deputy.

Two minutes, yes.

Thank you.

No-----

Excuse me. Go ahead.

Before I move to the next slot, I welcome 11 men from Cushinstown Men's Shed in New Ross, somewhere we are probably heading in our days. They know plenty about statements on flood relief. I welcome everybody. Have a good day.

Thank you, Deputy.

Allow the answer.

Go raibh míle maith agat, a Thaoisigh.

Deputy McDonald will resume her seat.
