The Dáil agreed the Order for Second Stage on 4 December last. Now it is being rushed through the Dáil. They have already spent 13 hours on it and they are not even finished. They want us to start on Thursday and finish on Friday. Then they will consider that it is our fault. I expect to have some amendments, possibly, depending on what happens in the Dáil. I do not think it will take such a short period of time to pass the Bill. Will the Leader ask the Tánaiste and the Taoiseach whether there is some legal way to give us more time? Are we going to make the same mistake that was made last year?
