Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

I have a question I wish to ask the Taoiseach. My understanding was that when the arrangements were originally being made for the proposal that there would be statements on banking today it was intended that there would be an opportunity to put questions to the Minister for Finance for reply. The original proposal was that this would take place before the end of the debate. Then the Government decided to introduce a motion congratulating itself at the end of that debate and that matter must now be dealt with. My understanding is there is an arrangement for questions on the banking situation later in the week. Will the Taoiseach clarify those arrangements?
