Order of Business
11:00 am
Pat Moylan (Fianna Fail)
The result of the vote is Tá, 20; Níl, 20. There is an equality of votes. Therefore, pursuant to Article 15.11.2° of the Constitution, I have to exercise my casting vote. I will vote against the question in this case, in view of the commitment given by the Leader to debate this matter on Private Members' time next Wednesday. That is why I am voting "Níl". The amended result is Tá, 20; Níl, 21. The question is defeated.
