Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael)

On a point of order a Cheann Comhairle, I am seeking your assistance. Last week, the all-party Joint Committee on Communications, Energy and Natural Resources debated this issue and we decided that we would send a motion to the Dáil requesting the annulment of this order. Where stands that request? In normal circumstances when a motion is sent from committee to the floor of the Dáil it would be the basis for debate rather than a new motion designed by the Minister.
