Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

Can I make a point of order? I have been a member of this committee previously and I am substitute today. I have never seen such a short committee in all my time here, two weeks before the budget. This is at a time when the Government has given less information than ever before in relation to the published documentation. As somebody who was involved in the terms of reference of setting up this committee, if it is allowing for such a short window which forces members into three minutes of questions and answers, it really needs to have a good look at itself in terms of the availability and the timing of this meeting.
