James Lawless (FF), Kildare North

This is what I alluded to in my speech a few minutes ago. I am a bit like Deputy Ó Laoghaire; I am indifferent and neutral on this. If the Chief Whip says there should be more time afforded to the debate, I am all for that. At committee, we afforded more time. The time petered out and Deputies did not offer to contribute, so naturally the debate ran to a close. I want to be clear on what we are voting on. As I understand it, we are voting for more time to be allowed for the debate and the Members opposite are opposing that proposal. They do not want more time afforded to the debate.
