James Bannon (Longford-Westmeath, Fine Gael)

I submitted this matter before 7 p.m. yesterday, but your office did not get back to me until 10.15 a.m. this morning. The Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government is out promoting a candidate for Lord Mayor of Dublin before he announces procedure. This is completely out of order and I am entitled to raise it as a Member of this Parliament.
