An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Dail Éireann — 2025-04-01
============================================================

Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

I note the dissent as set down by the various Deputies. They also dissented at the Business Committee last Thursday. We will do our best to find some speaking time. I will engage with the Opposition Whips to find speaking time regarding tariffs. We had speaking time on that two weeks ago. I said last Thursday that, as soon as 2 April had passed, we will know exactly where we are and that we will find time.
Deputy Collins looked for time regarding Uisce Éireann, which will be facilitated next week, as I told him last Thursday. Now, I notice that he is looking for time regarding ACRES. There is only a certain amount of time every week. We will facilitate that in due course but the Deputy will also recognise the fact that all parties and groups can use the Private Members' time to facilitate discussions on areas they want to discuss.
Regarding what was said by Deputy O'Callaghan, I think, regarding speaking rights, we have just had Leaders' Questions. Leaders' Questions were allocated by party and grouping. The Other Members' Questions will be allocated by party and grouping. We are following the Standing Orders.
