——a view on what is being proposed. I agree fully with Senator Norris's earlier proposal that this Bill should have reverted to Second Stage and I voted to that effect on the Order of Business. It is a pity the Government did not take that approach. Instead, there is what one could describe as a Fianna Fáil solution to a Fianna Fáil problem, whereby although one does not allow for a Second Stage debate, one conducts such a debate anyway. I object to this. Members are still debating section 1, which pertains to the Short Title and commencement, and it is now 4.40 p.m.
