Bertie Ahern (Dublin Central, Fianna Fail)

On a point of order, I have given a comprehensive answer to the Deputy's acting leader. I am not entitled to do that under Standing Orders, but I asked the Ceann Comhairle if I could do so. I am only meant to answer questions on legislation during the Order of Business. I was trying to be helpful to Deputy Burton, but having given a comprehensive answer, a Labour Party Deputy ignored what I just said. That is what is irritating.
