Future of School Education: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2020-07-30
============================================================

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

I must now deal with a postponed division relating to the motion regarding the future of school education. On Tuesday, 28 July 2020, on the question that the amendment to the motion be agreed to, a division was claimed and in accordance with Standing Order 80(2), that division must be taken now.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

Can I take it then that the motion, as amended, is agreed to?

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

It is not agreed.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

The Deputy did not say it was agreed but he did not say "Votáil".

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

I did.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

I am not deaf. I did not hear "Votáil". If the Deputy is going to call "Votáil", he should at least put on his microphone in order that we might hear him. Gabh mo leithscéal.

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

It is not agreed.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

Please.

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

Record it. It is as simple as that, a Cheann Comhairle.

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

The Deputies' opposition is recorded. The Deputies are against the adoption of the motion, as amended. That opposition is registered and recorded.
