Freedom of Information (Amendment) Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
2:30 pm
John Dardis (Progressive Democrats)
We do not have a guillotine. If we had a guillotine we would be out of this House at half past nine and we could resolve the issue with a question to the House. We do not have guillotines in the Seanad. When I was on the other side of the House I resisted them. We have not used them in this Government or the previous one. Matters are concluded by agreement of the House and not by a guillotine imposed by the Government.
The Senator has very successfully diverted me from what I was going to say next.
