Catherine Connolly (Galway West, Independent) | Oireachtas source

No. The Ceann Comhairle's office must be notified. Other Members cannot come in on priority questions. Members have asked me about speaking on priority questions. Members cannot come in on another Member's priority question. If there is a change, the Ceann Comhairle's office must be notified beforehand and permission given. Otherwise, we are back to the bad old ways of Members changing at the last minute.
