Brian Hayes (Fine Gael)

Will the Leader of the House consider amending No. 1 in order that, after the address and questions to the President of the European Parliament, the House will be given an opportunity to debate in a very concise way developments in Northern Ireland? She will no doubt agree that all Members wish the Taoiseach well tonight in his discussions with the British Prime Minister. Given the crisis ensuing in Northern Ireland, there is a need for a full debate in this House to take place tomorrow when we will have more knowledge available to us.

When does the Leader intend to propose a specific section on the Order Paper to deal with the second interim report of the Flood tribunal? She is no doubt aware that it is listed at No. 10 under the non-statutory section of the Order Paper. Given the implications and conclusions reached, when does she intend to have a full debate on it?
