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

Catherine Connolly (CC), Galway West

I will now go back to Questions Nos. 6, 12 and 19. I apologise to Deputies O'Donnell and O'Dowd. Question No. 6 was grouped with their questions. I did not see that and Deputy Dillon was not in the Chamber.
May I make a general point before we go on? If there are substitutes, they generally have to be notified within a certain time. Otherwise, I will be inconsistent and unfair and that is just not fair to Deputies. There is a timeframe for such notifications. I remind Deputies of that. I am sometimes caught out by it myself when I am not in the Chair, so I fully understand, but I will not deal with late applications in the middle of the morning because it is not easy enough and just not fair.
