Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

There is no provision to allow Deputies address important matters such as this. We will not agree to the Order Paper unless the Government indicates now that it is willing to have this matter substantively addressed on the floor of this House, either today or in the coming week at the latest. I ask the Tánaiste, the former Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment - although employment no longer appears on any Department or committee title since the recent reshuffle - to indicate to the House that she will allow an opportunity for us to address the debacle surrounding Quinn Insurance and the consequences for the workers and the economy as a whole. That is a matter we should be addressing in this House.
