These are tied to a proposal to limit the time in this case. Next week the Government will limit the time available to discuss the Social Welfare Bill which has not even been published, contrary to the changes to Standing Orders suggested by the Government in its Dáil reform proposals. The same is true of the local government Bill which will be introduced on Tuesday. Members of the House will not have a copy.

There is no point in debating Dáil reform unless it is genuine and will be implemented properly. Even today, while discussing this, the Government is doing the opposite. We need more time and it should not be concluded today. Deputies should see the implication of what they are voting on in their lives and in their parliamentary lives.
