Brian Hayes (Fine Gael)

We do not object to the Order of Business. We understand the importance of this Bill to the Northern peace process and fully support it. Obviously we will comment on it. Will the Leader provide time at the earliest opportunity for Members to contribute on the report on the national spatial strategy published by the Government today? This is a chance for us to get things right for the next 50 to 100 years. Many bad decisions were taken in the 1960s and 1970s because we did not have this centralised planning to enable us to organise our State in an efficient and sustainable way. When will the Leader make time available for this debate because I am sure colleagues on all sides would like to contribute?
