Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)

On a point of order, as I described what happened we cannot go back to deal with amendment No. 3 because all of the speakers who had offered had spoken, the proposer of the amendment had concluded and the Minister had concluded his contribution. We cannot return to that amendment. Having voted we had moved from that amendment to amendments Nos. 4 and 5. We cannot return to amendment No. 3. If we are to follow the course that has been suggested it would mean returning to amendments Nos. 4 and 5.
