Local Government Provisional Order Confirmation Bill, 1965 [Seanad]: Second Stage.
Not my city manager.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Workmen's Compensation.
This is becoming a debate.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Weekend Leave for Hospital Patients.
The Deputy is making a statement, not asking a question.
Committee on Finance. - Vote 40—Industry and Commerce (Resumed).
This is Vote 40 and the Minister is concluding on it.
I do not know what the Deputy is referring to. This is the Estimate, I understand, that is before the House.
The Vote is for £4,544,000.
I do not know what the Minister has.
That is as I understand it. If Deputy Hogan wishes to ask a question—he says it is a small matter—there would be no difficulty in asking a question.
I take it the Minister is concluding on the Estimate before the House?
This will hardly get us anywhere. I understood the Minister is concluding on the Estimate which was discussed.
The Estimate which was discussed ; that specifies it well enough.
Putting the question might resolve the matter.
He can move an amended Estimate.
All Estimates are put before the House for discussion, if the House wishes to discuss them.
The Minister may move an amended Estimate or he may move——
There cannot be two motions before the House at the same time.
It is still before the House. It is quite irregular to have two motions before the House at the same time.
I do not think any useful purpose is served by continuing this barrage across the floor of the House.
