Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

I will ask the question again. What are the arrangements for the discussion on the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest (No. 2) Bill, in which there is much interest? Is this to be guillotined through next Tuesday or Wednesday, or have arrangements been made in that regard?

What is the current situation arising from the GRA's decision to ballot its members for industrial action? Nobody wants to see a situation like this. Is the Minister in discussion with the Garda Commissioner and does he intend to meet the GRA? Strict guidelines pertain here. Nobody wants a situation where this is followed through.
