I support the proposed amendment to the Order of Business. It is farcical that the Seanad is still holding up the banking inquiry because of a mistake made by the Government. The Government should put its hands up and accept it made a mistake when its people did not attend a meeting they should have attended. The Government seeks to overturn a democratic decision by a committee of the Houses of the Oireachtas. In so doing, the Government is delaying an important inquiry into the banking crisis.
