Averil Power (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

On a point of order, it was suggested that we could deal with Committee Stage next week but that we would not have the report by then. I would prefer to leave Committee Stage for a few weeks so that at least we would be in a position to have a proper debate. I have a real difficulty with this because I put forward detailed amendments, as did Senator Zappone. However, how am I supposed to re-draft the amendments for Report Stage if I have not heard a ministerial comment on them beforehand?
