Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

To clarity the first matter, the Government organises the schedule of the House and orders the business that is to be taken therein. The Whips will make arrangements on the timing of a debate but they must do so within the context of the business ordered by the Government. Will the Minister state whether the Government is ordering a debate on the IMF and OECD reports? There is no point in hiding behind the Whip.
