Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions
Dail Éireann — 2025-02-27
============================================================

Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

In my experience the Opposition does not seem to have any challenge speaking, including speaking over me. What this is actually about is not taking a minute of speaking time off Sinn Féin, People Before Profit, Labour, the Social Democrats, Independent Ireland or anybody I have left out but saying that, twice a week for eight minutes, we will allow people who got democratically elected with thousands of votes to stand up on behalf of their constituents and ask a couple of questions. I think that is perfectly reasonable.
