On a point of order, under Standing Order 68, I moved about 45 minutes ago that the question on this amendment be put and that we would have closure. As the Leas-Cheann Comhairle knows, I think he was here, we are going into something like our 15th or 16th hour. It is one of the longest debates ever - even counting Finance Bills, etc. We have had endless discussion of this amendment, all around the houses effectively, and we are due to have a repetition of this with the last major amendment to the Bill. I ask, under Standing Order 68, that the question be put.
