Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein)

No. We do not believe the arrangements as currently envisaged allow sufficient time for Opposition spokespersons to digest and consider the results of the stress tests. We are asking for an hour-long adjournment to be taken at 4.45 p.m. to allow for proper consideration of the results, and that following such an adjournment, the Minister would then come before the House, make his statement and allow others to do likewise.
