I will accept the ruling the Ceann Comhairle makes. I came in after rushing up here and maybe I made my points somewhat forcefully. I would not argue the toss on this if we were not in Covid times. We have to keep an eye on the clock and so on but I was in a place that was safe with regard to the Covid situation and as soon as I got word I got up here as quickly as I could. The point has been better made by other Deputies and, in fairness, the speakers should be allowed to have their say.
