Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

No. No. 4 proposes that the Dáil sit at 2.30 p.m. next Tuesday. There is nothing to prevent us from sitting earlier on Tuesday to give effect to what I asked for earlier. It is very strange that in the week the Government is to propose new Standing Orders to sit earlier on a Tuesday and on an additional Friday, it would not accede to our request that the Order of Business, Leaders' Questions and questions to a Minister be taken earlier on Tuesday to give full effect to a Dáil sitting. I welcome the fact there will be additional time for the budget this year. This is not to curtail that in any way but to extend the sitting to allow for other business to be taken on Tuesday.
