Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I know this is an unusual circumstance and that people have travelled from the mid-west to hear a debate on the Government motion, amended by Fine Gael and Labour, on Shannon services. Fine Gael was prepared to have that debate during Private Members' time and put off our own Private Members' time until some time in the future. If people have travelled and the debate will not be concluded in the manner envisaged I wish to make that point to the Chief Whip but I will not labour it.
