Trevor Sargent (Dublin North, Green Party)

The Government has forgotten the basic principle that one should not use the guillotine unless one has to. No explanation has been given. Does the Government consider the Dáil to be an inconvenience and is use of the guillotine a way to get through business without being accountable? I ask that we desist from use of the guillotine when there is no explanation as to why it is needed.
