An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Dail Éireann — 2021-04-21
============================================================

Pádraig Mac Lochlainn (SF), Donegal

I will comment on the same issue as Deputy Tóibín. The Deputy is a member of the Regional Independent Group. The Whip of that group is Deputy Naughten, a very able Whip. I have seen some political postings in recent days and I wish to make it clear that a presentation, which made it clear that the Dáil would return to a three-day week, was made to all Deputies last week. That is being worked on. It is a logistical challenge. I must be fair and say that was presented to all Deputies. It must be known to Deputy Tóibín's group. The call for the return of a full Dáil has been worked on by all groups and parties. The return will happen soon. I must be fair. It is fair enough when the Opposition challenges the Government but when we are working collegially to get this place back to a fair sitting, we must also be fair. That has been happening and we will return to a full Dáil soon, thanks to all of our efforts.
