Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour)

With reference to the Nuclear Test Ban Bill, it has come to my attention that there is no explanatory memorandum. As the House is aware, the purpose of an explanatory memorandum is to inform of a Bill's rationale and what it is intended to achieve. Given there is no explanatory memorandum for the Nuclear Test Ban Bill, is the House indicating that we will take the Joe Jacob approach of putting our heads between our legs? Will we get an explanatory memorandum for the Bill?
