Defence (Amendment) Bill 2024: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-07-03
============================================================

Gerard P. Craughwell (IND), Labour Panel

During the Order of Business, it slipped by me that this is to be guillotined on Committee Stage after two hours today. With all due respect to the Tánaiste, this is a matter for the House and how it runs its business. Two hours for an important piece of legislation on Committee Stage seems to me to be outrageous.
