An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Seanad Éireann — 2025-11-18
============================================================

Mark Daly (CC), Administrative Panel

For the benefit of Members, there is no abstention provision in our Standing Orders at the moment. However, the Committee on Parliamentary Privileges and Oversight is looking at the issue of allowing Members who are present to abstain, as happens in the Dáil. I will revert to Members on that at a later date.
