Seán Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, Ceann Comhairle)

Excuse me Deputies, this is about promised legislation. If Deputies have queries they should use parliamentary questions or the Topical Issues debate and we will try to facilitate them. Day in, day out I have to interrupt people because they are abusing the rules of the House. I am adhering to the rules of the House in the interest of everybody. An important item of legislation called the Finance Bill 2012 will be debated later and the debate on it is limited in time. I ask Deputies to observe the rules on promised legislation.
