Darragh O'Brien (Fianna Fail)

I ask the Leader to devote at least two hours to the debate on the motion to be put before the House in respect of the establishment of the constitutional convention. The Seanad is sitting tomorrow and there is only one item on its agenda. We have no difficulty facilitating the extension of today's business into tomorrow. People should be allowed speak on the matter to which I refer. One hour is not sufficient for a debate on it. We will oppose the Order of Business if further time is not allocated. I ask the Leader to consider extending the debate. The House is only due to sit until 12.30 p.m. tomorrow and some of today's business could be delayed and taken at that point.
