As a housing spokesperson, I came in here today ready to debate the Bill as did other spokespersons. We have tabled amendments and, as we speak, people are worried that their rent is going to increase. We were elected to do a job in here, to deal with legislation, and we are prepared to do it. Two parties in this Dáil, however, have had discussions and talks and now Fianna Fáil is proposing that we postpone the debate. This is just throwing the matter back to those two parties again.
