Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I am glad Deputy Timmins said that and I will sleep soundly tonight as a result. I take his points on board. The position of the Ceann Comhairle is a matter for Government. If the Opposition wants to bring proposals forward, they will be taken on board and will be considered by Government. I will consider a debate on the Seanad. Perhaps we can include that in a future debate on Dáil reform. Walk through votes are a matter for the Opposition. I never called one when in opposition. I was always very practical.
