I was going to call on the Leader to reply, but I will allow Senator Mary Ann O'Brien to contribute. However, she will be the final speaker before I call the Leader. Senators raise issues on the Order of Business and then do not wait to listen to the replies the Leader provides. Senator Michael D'Arcy was supposed to be the final speaker, but then I allowed Senator Rónán Mullen to contribute. Senator Mary Ann O'Brien will be the last to contribute before the Leader replies. It creates disorder in the House if Members just come and go as they please.
