Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

That does not appear to be acceptable to Deputy Cullinane. Could I just make the point that we are first and foremost legislators? The legislation is in the Seanad and I take it that it is important that we get the legislation right and that enough time is given to the scrutiny of the legislation itself, particularly in what is a high-pressure situation in terms of legislation going through the House at the moment. I am just not clear whether deferring it to Monday is something that could not be accommodated, but I am open to talking to the Minister and the Ceann Comhairle and the Business Committee can reflect on this. Getting the legislation through with proper scrutiny should be our priority.
