Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

It is not agreed. This in unprecedented. The Government is moving a motion of confidence, when there has been no formal submission of the motion of no confidence. We have not seen the text of the motion of no confidence, so it is unprecedented to make this move.

I also add that at the Business Committee meeting on Thursday, I raised the unprecedented crisis in fisheries and seafood communities, which is unprecedented due to the forthcoming loss of quotas across the sectors. No time could be made available by the Government this afternoon.
