============================================================

Jack Chambers (FF), Dublin West

I move:
"That, notwithstanding anything in Standing Orders, and unless the Dáil shall otherwise order, the rotas and arrangements recommended in the Report of the Committee on Standing Orders and Dáil Reform titled ‘Rotas and arrangements for Leaders’ Questions, Private Members’ Time, and Parliamentary Questions’, and dated 29th July, 2020, for—
(a) Leaders’ Questions,
(b) Private Members’ Time, and
(c) Parliamentary Questions under Standing Orders 47, 49 and 52,
be adopted with effect from 30th July, 2020, until further notice in the 33rd Dáil.”

On a point of order-----

Catherine Connolly (CC), Galway West

There is no point of order when I am in the middle of putting the motion.

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

We put down amendments.

Catherine Connolly (CC), Galway West

At this point the Deputy will have to co-operate with me. I am in the middle of putting the motion.

Catherine Connolly (CC), Galway West

As no tellers have been nominated by the Níl side, I must declare the question in favour of the Tá side, in accordance with Standing Order 82.
