The Minister is reflecting on what is going on in council chambers. A system needs to be introduced. People should not be allowed to hold up council meetings. None of us wants to see that happen, but I agree with Deputy Murphy's suggestion of an appeals mechanism. There needs to be something there. I would be concerned that it is open to abuse as it stands.
