National Retrofit Plan: Motion [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2022-09-20
============================================================

Paul McAuliffe (FF), Dublin North-West

On a point of order, there were a number of references in the previous debate to the absence of political parties. I would like the House to note that there is no speaking time for parties during Private Members’ business. If Sinn Féin wishes to make time available for backbenchers to speak, we are very happy to do that, but it is hypocritical to suggest that no one is present when they do not provide any speaking time.
