Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The row with Deputy O'Dea and his colleagues last year was about Bills being guillotined. I understand that no Bill has been guillotined thus far this session and there is no intention of guillotining any of them. It is always a case of attempting to comply with Standing Orders and allowing a decent period between Second Stage and Committee Stage. I spoke to the Chief Whip about the matter. I am sure Deputy O'Dea will join me in congratulating his wife on the birth of her baby yesterday. That is why he is not here. I will have to resume the chat when he returns and will advise the Deputy accordingly.
