Order of Business.
If you have a talk with Deputy Oliver Flanagan he may be able to help you.
Committee on Finance. - Vote 37: Agriculture (Resumed).
The Deputy's colleague said money was the only problem and blamed the Government for not supplying it. I agree the Deputy is on a more rational line.
But it is not the whole problem.

That is what I like about you people.

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Waiver of Rates.
The possibility of providing relief from rates in the case of community or parochial halls will fall to be considered in the context of the proposed White Paper on local finance and taxation.
The White Paper is being drawn up and this item is being considered for inclusion in the White Paper.
The Parliamentary Secretary has not recommended anything yet.
Do not try to jump the gun.
I do not intend to——
——have the contents of the proposed White Paper elicited from me by way of question or supplementary question.
There will be a lot of things included in the proposed White Paper.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - County Tipperary Houses.
