-----and, most disgracefully and most inexcusably, cuts to carers benefit and carer's allowance. These are among the range of cuts we are being asked to accommodate.

In a further proposition on the Order Paper, we are being asked to support the guillotining of Second Stage at 1 p.m. tomorrow and the Remaining Stages at 6.30 p.m. This is absolutely scandalous and it is not acceptable to this Deputy or to the other Sinn Féin Deputies and we will oppose each of these proposals.
