Seán Ó Fearghaíl (Kildare South, Ceann Comhairle) | Oireachtas source

I assume the debate will go on after 8 p.m. this evening and resume. In the normal course of events, the amendments have to be submitted before the debate on the motion commences. That is the issue. It has been the normal practice. Deputies may have been busy and at various locations. The notice went out in the normal way from the Houses of the Oireachtas, not from the Minister or his Department.
