Order of Business

We should have a debate on the programme for Government because the Labour Party Senators lambast the Minister for Health and other Ministers day after day in the House as if they are in opposition. We need to know where they stand. Are their policies those of the Labour Party or are they following the programme for Government? If they are, they need to stand by the decisions they are taking and the votes they cast in both Houses. They cannot have it both ways; they are either with the Government or they are not. If they are not happy with the decisions that have been made or the way this country is being run, they need to stand up and be counted.
