Is that proposal agreed?
Mattie McGrath (Tipperary, Independent)

It is not agreed.

It is not agreed. It was proposed yesterday-----

I cannot hear you, Deputy. We are not having a debate on it, but it is not agreed.
Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, RISE)

On a point of order, can we not discuss the proposal for at least a minute? He is attempting to ram this through.
Mairead Farrell (Galway West, Sinn Fein)

There was no request for a waiver at the Business Committee either. We were discussing this in the finance committee yesterday and there was no agreement on it. Now it is just being railroaded through. That is absolutely unacceptable.
Paul Murphy (Dublin South West, RISE)

On a point of order, a Cheann Comhairle, for the Minister to come to the House on a Thursday, just before the close of business, to attempt to ram this through with no discussion whatsoever-----

This will have an impact of €500 for hundreds of thousands of homes.

Please resume your seat, Deputy Murphy.

A Cheann Comhairle, we need to debate it at least.

Please resume your seat. I am not taking a contribution from Deputy Mattie McGrath either. This matter was before the Business Committee this morning and nobody objected.

A Cheann Comhairle, I have to protest.

Resume your seat, please.
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

That is an inaccurate record of what happened, a Cheann Comhairle. Please let me protest about that.
Seán Ó Fearghaíl (Kildare South, Ceann Comhairle)

Protest away. Let me rephrase it. I, personally, have no recollection of anybody objecting to it at the Business Committee.
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)
Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source
No, no.
Seán Ó Fearghaíl (Kildare South, Ceann Comhairle)

I have to put the question.
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

The process was not followed properly.

Resume your seat, Deputy.
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

No, a Cheann Comhairle. You made a statement that was wrong. It is just wrong.
Seán Ó Fearghaíl (Kildare South, Ceann Comhairle)
Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source
Resume your seat.
Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (Donegal, Sinn Fein)

Please do not be disorderly.

You are bringing our committee into disrepute. I want to be clear about that. The process was not followed.

Resume your seat. If you have respect for the House, you will resume your seat.

I am asking for a point of clarification.

No. Resume your seat. The question has been put.
