Yesterday, I advised the Leader of my view that the Water Services Bill is bring rushed through the Houses of the Oireachtas and - in light of public concern regarding this issue - stated that I would request that today's Order of Business to be amended in order that our deliberations on it be delayed until January. It is wrong that we are dealing with the Bill in this way. As a result, I formally propose that the Water Services Bill be removed from the Order of Business and taken in January.
