Michael Noonan (Limerick East, Fine Gael)

I know it is always the sequence. Committee Stage went down last night earlier than expected. There was no vote at that point. After Report Stage we will move to Fifth Stage and out of delicacy and interest - the Whips have a difficult job - I wonder if the vote is brought forward from 5 p.m. will the troops be lined up? What would happen if we go down at 2.30 p.m., for example?
