Caít Keane: Can I interrupt once more? I am getting tired interrupting, but Members are rambling. I hope that when we come to the actual amendment, where democracy and elections are on the table, we will not have a repeat of this discussion. I gave a lot of leniency to every Member to discuss democracy, the type of election or whatever even though that is not part of the amendment. As the Minister...

Seanad: Order of Business (5 Jul 2012)

Caít Keane: Like Senator Norris, I raised the issue of the financial loss suffered by trainee pilots yesterday. We should have a debate on that matter.

I want to put a positive note on the record. The market...
