Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I have just debated the executive order with the Taoiseach and I have no objection to anything but I do not like shallow grandstanding. I put to the Taoiseach the idea of a cross-party motion and I have no difficulty working with other parties to achieve a cross-party motion. I have no difficulty in having a debate on this issue. I am just observing that some Members object strenuously when people try to vary decisions of the Business Committee until it suits their own political agenda and then they think they can play fast and loose with it.
