Thirtieth Amendment of the Constitution (Treaty on Stability, Coordination and Governance in the Economic and Monetary Union) Bill 2012: Committee and Remaining Stages
11:00 am
Denis O'Donovan (Fianna Fail)
It is like putting the cart slightly before the horse. In other words, the Schedule is agreed to first, followed by the sections of the Bill. I do not believe it makes any practical difference. It is a long-standing tradition when dealing with constitutional amendments. Senators will still have a chance to speak to the sections.
