Sittings and Business of Dáil: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-10

To respond to Deputy Michael Healy-Rae, I agree that we need to conduct business in a more family-friendly fashion. We are working across parties to change the current position on late sittings, but that requires the co-operation of the Opposition. When the Opposition comes in here and calls votes, even though the Government has made concessions, that adds 30 minutes to the day of the staff. We have had threats from the Opposition-----
