Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

On a point of order, four motions were submitted by the Sinn Féin Party and they have been mentioned in the House already. One of them relates to water charges and the majority of Deputies have the mandate to abolish water charges. Why are these motions not on the supplementary Order Paper and why are we not respecting the mandate we have been given to end water charges and Irish Water? It is very clear that water charges are dead and gone. They have been buried with Irish Water, and that happened in the general election. Why are those motions not before us today? Why are there three other motions?
