An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
1:25 pm
Thomas Pringle (Donegal, Independent) | Oireachtas source
As I understand it, on Monday the Ceann Comhairle received requests from a number of Members for a Standing Order 42 debate on the Adjournment on this issue. Subsequently, the Government proposed changing the agenda for tomorrow. The Business Committee had agreed the agenda for tomorrow last Thursday. I would like clarity on how this has happened. We requested the Ceann Comhairle to provide a debate and he came back and said there was no need because the Government was giving time for a debate. When did the Government actually propose to do this? Was it on foot of the motions going in and the Ceann Comhairle's request to the Government or was it totally independent?
