Five minutes.

Are we all getting five minutes now?

I will give way to Deputy McDonald.

We have a period in Taoiseach's questions to return to this topic, a Cheann Comhairle. That may facilitate you given the time that has been used. I object and find the way you are behaving in the Chamber today wrong.

The way the Taoiseach is behaving, by not answering questions. That is utterly without precedent. I asked 18 questions of the Minister for Justice and the Taoiseach last week. The Taoiseach has repeatedly said that if Deputies have questions, they should submit them and they will be answered. They are not being answered. One simple question that I asked was when the Taoiseach was informed that Mr. Justice Woulfe was to be appointed. No date was provided. All 18 questions were merged into one generic, rubbish answer…

If the Government is going to allow inter-county travel from a certain date in December, there are workers, particularly in healthcare, who give up their time at Christmas to allow people with young children to be at home at Christmas.

I am finishing. These healthcare workers give up their time. Will the ban on travel between counties be lifted to allow healthcare workers to travel over the new year period? People should be able to travel until early January so they can go home and see their loved ones. For some workers, New Year's Eve is more important than Christmas Day because they have to relieve people with young families over the Christmas period.

The Taoiseach might go back and-----

It has nothing to do with the separation of powers. The separation of powers is the reason for asking the question.

That is a separate issue.

The Taoiseach had no issue with that either.

I did not say that.

I did not.

Let us go ahead.

Can I-----

I asked a question which the Taoiseach did not answer. It had nothing to do with the earlier issue.

He has not answered me.

Will the Taoiseach answer the question on travel and healthcare workers that I asked him?

Given all the controversy, the Taoiseach might tell us when the Government intends to publish a new judicial appointments commission Bill. In 2016, he called on the then Government not to control the Dáil but it seems that, if matters relating to the Business Committee do not change quickly, that will fall by the wayside. At the time, the current Taoiseach stated: "We believe that the new Dáil should not represent more business as usual – that it should involve a decisive move towards a reformed politics." On the j…

The Taoiseach has not.
