Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - National College of Art.
The Government would not make individual representations about Long Kesh. I put down a question and it was ruled out of order by the Ceann Comhairle. I did not get a letter from him about it either.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Training College Examination.
Am I allowed to ask a supplementary?
As the Ceann Comhairle has said before, I ask short supplementaries but they are not so kindly. May I ask the Minister, if the lectures are given in English, who sets the papers in Irish?
Who sets the papers?
It is usual in all institutes of higher education that the people who give the lectures set the papers. Are they set in English and then translated into Irish?
The Government writ does not run.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Teacher Training.

Order of Business.
May I ask the Tánaiste when the Government intend to implement their promise that we could have a debate each month on the question of Ireland's entry to the EEC? The last debate took place three mont...
We were promised a debate here each month. Why do the Government not implement that promise?
A specific promise was made in this House. Why did the Government not implement it? It is quite a simple matter. They promised a debate each month and it is three months since we have had a debate....
I am interested only that the Government carry out their promise. You cannot believe anything they tell you.
