Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (25 Nov 2021)

Mark Daly: Before I call the acting Leader to outline the Order of Business, I want to point out that I agree with Members the issue of pay for secretarial staff. The acting Leader will outline this in his response because he is also a member of the Houses of the Oireachtas Commission. This item has been dealt with by the commission, month in and month out. The reason Members might not be aware of...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (25 Nov 2021)

Mark Daly: You can intervene when a Member is making a statement. At the end of the debate, when you are bringing up a point of order, it must relate to a ruling of the Chair on an issue or a procedure in the House. I will circulate that note again, along with a note on the other issue. There is an opportunity. It is not my role to tell people what is or is not appropriate in what they are saying.

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (25 Nov 2021)

Mark Daly: The Senator did not ask. He has to ask. There is a Standing Order. I will send the Senator a copy of the Standing Order. For the benefit of everybody, if someone is saying something, Members have an opportunity to ask to intervene. If the speaker does not wish them to intervene or does not allow them, then that is the rule of the House. I call the acting Leader to outline a response to...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Nov 2021)

Mark Daly: Under the Constitution, the European courts are not under our jurisdiction. Therefore, what Members say about courts in other countries does not come under my remit. I am taking the precedent from rulings of the Chair in respect of policy. This is the important part. This House is about debate and about people discussing the issues of the day. Members may and should talk about issues in...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Nov 2021)

Mark Daly: That is why I made the clarification. The issue is if you make somebody or a case identifiable. When Members bring out the detail of a case, for example, an 83-year-old lady, that would stray into the area where it would make the individual case identifiable. However, for the benefit of the House I will circulate the ruling from previous Cathaoirligh and from the Chair in the Dáil. I...

Seanad: An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business (24 Nov 2021)
