The time proposed for the meeting of the Business Committee is only acceptable if the Taoiseach indicates that the Government, at the committee, will be agreeable to have the relevant Ministers make statements and take questions. A debate must then follow and this must happen today. Otherwise, we will not agree to shunt the issue off to a meeting of the Business Committee which will then bury it until the Taoiseach decides he wants it discussed. We need an indication now that the Taoiseach is agreeable to having statements from the relevant Ministers and a debate today.
