I will report on what is said to the Minister. Senators cannot have it all ways, as they want to have it with Aer Lingus. I am prepared to amend the Order of Business as follows: after the Order of Business, we would have a debate on Aer Lingus up to 2 p.m. with all spokespersons allocated five minutes; No. 2, Statute Law Revision Bill 2015 - Second Stage would be taken at 2 p.m. and adjourn not later than 3 p.m., with the contributions of group spokespersons not to exceed eight minutes and all other Senators not to exceed five minutes; and we would delete No. 3aon the supplementary Order Paper. That is in response to the request from Members of the House in trying to go some way to accede to their requests.As I said, the Minister does not have powers of bilocation and he cannot be here. I will relay what was said in the House to him. He was anxious to come into the Chamber but could not do so before 5 p.m.
