Seán Barrett (Dún Laoghaire, Ceann Comhairle)

There is no point of order. Under Standing Orders, there are six minutes allotted for each priority question, two for the Minister's or Minister of State's initial reply and four for supplementary questions and replies. How Deputy Peadar Tóibín uses the four minutes is a matter for himself. If he makes statements, he will use up most of the time allotted. If the Minister of State must reply, I cannot stop him.
