Defamation (Amendment) Bill 2024: Committee Stage (Resumed)
2:00 am
Alice-Mary Higgins (Independent)
I would note that we are being told that the Cathaoirleach or the Leas-Chathaoirleach is required to take the vote but the vote was called from the Chair, not by the Cathaoirleach or the Leas-Chathaoirleach. So is it the case that anybody can call the vote and then does the Leas-Chathaoirleach or the Cathaoirleach have to magically be in place for the vote to take place?
