Pat Gallagher (Donegal, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Before we move on to promised legislation, let me say something to all Members as some can be very clever and try to circumvent the rules. We have only 15 minutes and I wish to accommodate as many speakers as possible so I ask Members to preface their question with a reference to promised legislation or the programme for Government.

Before the leaders, we have Deputies Michael Moynihan, O'Rourke, Fitzmaurice, Tóibín, Durkan, Deering, Scanlon, Rock, McLoughlin, Rabbitte, Martin Kenny and Smith. I have to cut off after 15 minutes. We start with Deputy Thomas Byrne on behalf of Fianna Fáil.
