Establishment of Joint Committee on the Constitution: Motion.
11:00 am
Joe O'Toole (Independent)
Before we agree the motion, this is an all-party constitutional group which does not include Independents who now constitute one tenth of the Members of the Houses of the Oireachtas. I will no longer accept anything relating to the so-called all-party constitutional committee. It is questionable to say it reflects our views. I do not want to hold up the business of the House, but if it is a constitutional committee it should reflect all groups as well as all parties in both Houses.
