An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Seanad Éireann — 2026-04-16 ============================================================ Dee Ryan (CC), Nominated by the Taoiseach I welcome the students from Donabate Community College to the Seanad Chamber. They are very welcome and I hope they enjoy their visit to Leinster House today. They are just arriving as we are concluding what we call the Order of Business. It happens on every sitting day in the Chamber. At the beginning, the Leader of the House comes in and sets forth what Senators will be discussing and debating for the day. We then usually have an hour assigned to allow Senators to come into the Chamber to raise any other matter that is of interest and important to them that they would like to see included in any future Order of Business. We have just concluded that and we have had Senators coming in and out for the last hour. We will move on now and conclude the Order of Business. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
