Order of Business

Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)
We have passed the European Communities Bill which is a dastardly piece of legislation giving authority to the Minister of the day or any line Minister to rule by statutory instrument, thereby bypassing this Chamber and the Seanad. In view of this, has the Government any intention of reviewing the European Union scrutiny legislation so the House can have more power in this regard?
