Denis O'Donovan: We are not on Second Stage. If this goes on, I will rule very strictly on it. It is not a Second Stage speech. The Senator is speaking about a particular amendment and I do not want him to go into a Second Stage speech or a big rigmarole about this or that. I will be fair today but very strict.
