I hope I am. My understanding is that the three amendments were ruled out of order by me on advice because the matters had not been considered on Committee Stage and did not arise out of Committee Stage proceedings. I understand from what the Deputy has said that they may have been tabled for discussion on Committee Stage, but were not reached. It is only those matters that are reached and discussed that can subsequently form the subject matter of amendments. That is long established practice in the House.
