Order of Business.
There is nothing to put to the House. Deputy John Bruton is offering.
The matters referred to by the Deputy are not appropriate to the Order of Business and, in any event, we cannot have matters appertaining to the talks referred to here on a daily basis.
Surely there are other ways and means of arriving at a consensus in such matters?
These matters should be raised in another way and at a more appropriate time.
I have ruled on that matter, it is not appropriate to the Order of Business.
It does not arise now.
This matter was referred to yesterday morninig.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Detention of Young Offenders.
A very brief question, Deputy McCartan. I wanted to dispose of the other questions, but that does not seem possible now.
Question No. 4 please.
If Deputy McCormack's question is to be answered it must be taken now.
Please, Deputy McCartan, be fair. Let us have regard to other questions also.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Closure of Special Schools.
The time for dealing with Priority Questions is exhausted. I am sure the Deputy will have regard to that fact and will be brief and relevant.
Is the Deputy asking questions or answering them?
The time has long since passed for dealing with Priority Questions.
The time for dealing with Priority Questions has been exhausted.
No, time does not permit. The Chair is bound by Standing Orders and if the House wishes to change them, that is its prerogative.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - School Discipline.
I am calling Question No. 7.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Educational and Social Disadvantaged.
I am calling first Deputy Jim Higgins whose priority question No. 5 refers.
The Deputy is imparting information rather than seeking it.
This is Question Time.
Question No. 9 please. I am anxious to get on to other questions.
Question No. 9, please.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Galway New School.
I wish you would ask a question, Deputy, instead of making a statement.
That should be adequate. Question No. 10.
Please, Deputy, restrain yourself.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Additional Third Level Places.
The questioning is over-long.
I want to facilitate other Members.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - AIDS Programme.
A final question from Deputy Garland.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Pupil Assessment.
I want to bring in Deputy Jim Higgins also.
I hope Deputy Higgins will be brief. I would like to deal with Deputy John Browne's question and I seek the permission of the House to do so.
I was hoping the House might agree to take Question No. 17 to which Deputy Browne is anxiously awaiting a reply.
