Dan Boyle (Cork South Central, Green Party)

The Green Party is also unhappy with the proposals for a guillotine. Several Opposition party Members indicated they did not intend to oppose the Bill on Second Stage but I am anxious that, in the unlikely event of a vote being called at 7 p.m., the Government will allow for an informal arrangement such that 90 minutes will be allocated for Private Members' time. I request that the Taoiseach and Chief Whip take this on board.
