I am indeed. Thank you, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. In relation to the speaking arrangements for the Cannabis for Medicinal Use Regulation Bill, it is completely unacceptable that a report on Deputy Gino Kenny's Bill will commence with 15 minutes from the committee Chair, who is recommending that the Bill, which passed Second Stage, goes no further, and then 15 minutes from the Government, which is also recommending that the Bill goes no further, and that there is no allocated, formalised slot for the proposers of the Bill to defend the Bill and explain why they believe it should continue to Committee Stage.
