Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - ICTU-Employers Talks.
That is an argument. A question, please, arising from the question put down.
I am calling Deputy Mac Giolla and I will then call Deputy Gene Fitzgerald for a final supplementary.
That seems to be an argument more than a question.
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - National Development Corporation.
Congratulations or the converse are not in order at Question Time.
I have allowed disputes from Deputy Reynolds and a speech from the Minister.
I have allowed a speech from each side.
Question Time is not a time for speeches from either side.
May I take it that the Deputy is going on to another point?
The Chair is concerned that we do not have repetition.
I will allow only one more supplementary on this question.
I have allowed the final supplementary.
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - IDA Projects.
I am afraid that that is a general question. If we are willing to travel the whole country——
The Minister is rising too much to the bait in that and other respects. Uimhir a 14.
We cannot go through this matter county by county.
The Minister is just as bad as the Deputy.
This is a general question. We cannot go county by county or we will be here all day.
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Irish Standards.
We cannot remain on this question.
Question No. 19.
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Construction Industry Materials.
This is developing into a debate. I am not talking about Deputy Reynolds now but the Minister seems to have accepted what is in the question and anything more now is obviously a debate on the matter.
There are several other Deputies awaiting——
Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Natural Gas Supply.
There is a question on the Order Paper about nearly every town in the south of Ireland.
There seems to be a question on every town in the country, including Belfast.
Private Notice Questions. - Fishing by Spanish Trawlers.
We have already spent five minutes on this question.
The question has been adequately dealt with.
Private Notice Questions. - Massacres in Assam.
The remaining Questions will appear on tomorrow's Order Paper.
I hope the Leader of the Opposition is not criticising the Chair. In deciding on that question the Chair took all the circumstances into consideration.
Order of Business.
Is the arrangement regarding Private Members' time agreed?
The Chair will communicate with the Deputy.
It has been suggested that the Deputy approach the Government Whip about the matter.
The Taoiseach is suggesting that the Whips discuss it.
The Chair will communicate with the Deputy.
We cannot have a debate on this.
It is on the Order Paper.
We cannot have an argument.
I am glad the Deputy said “In conclusion”.
Adjournment Debate. - Limerick Canning Plant Closure.
Deputy Reynolds has only four minutes.
The Minister of State at the Department of Agriculture to conclude.
