Mary O'Rourke (Fianna Fail)

With the Cathaoirleach's permission, I will deal with two matters before I reply to the Order of Business.

In reference to Senator Ryan's point about the wording of the motion in my name, we now have an amended motion which states:

That in each sitting until the adjournment of the Seanad for the Easter recess the Leader of the House be called to reply to the Order of Business no later than 40 minutes after the proposal of the Order of Business.

I thank Members for their support and the staff who redrafted the motion.
