Before the vote on the Impaired Farm Credit Bill was taken last night, I emailed the Tánaiste's office, the Taoiseach's office, the office of the Minister, Deputy Eamon Ryan, and the Whips, Deputies Chambers and Griffin, asking if a free vote could be given to their party members last night on that Bill. Did Fine Gael offer a free vote to the rural Deputies in the party or were they under the whip?
