Order of Business.
This brings me to the extraordinary situation in which we find ourselves. The Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003, as published by the Government, arrived at my home in Cork yesterday at around midday. If the Government had its way, that would have been the first I would have seen of it. It would have been an utterly unintelligible Bill because it consists of a series of amendments to an Act. I do not have the entire Acts of the Oireachtas in my personal library. Fortunately, however, the Internet – not the Government – came to my assistance.
