An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-03
============================================================

Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I am advised that engagement is taking place regarding section 39 and section 56 agencies. All of us on all sides of the House are very conscious of the vital services those bodies provide. The issue can only be solved, and it can be solved and the strike avoided, through engagement over the next two weeks.
Regarding time being provided, I spoke to the Chief Whip. It is possible, through the Business Committee, to provide time next week for statements notwithstanding the fact that it is budget week. As Deputies will know, Opposition parties have dedicated time each week and it is up to them to prioritise the issues they want discussed during that time.
