Are the three Independent Group Deputies sharing time?

This climate action plan is extremely ambitious, notwithstanding its implementation, which of course is where rubber meets road. It sets ambitious targets from here to 2030 and out to 2050. That begs the question for Members of this House of how we envision that future in 2050, 30 years hence. How do we envision that future in different sectors of our economy and society? For example, in transport, do we just imagine another lane on the M50 and continued congestion in and out of our cities? Alternatively, do we env…

I must have my timings all wrong.

It has been clarified to me that the Deputy's text is additional, as opposed to a replacement.

That is what I have been given to understand.

I thank the Minister of State. We will return to Sinn Féin to conclude the debate.

The debate having concluded, I must deal first with amendment No. 1 in the name of Solidarity-People Before Profit.

The amendment before the House is as it appeared on the Order Paper.

If there are multiple additions to different parts of the motion, it can be couched as a full rewrite of the motion. That is what has happened in this instance because there were multiple changes suggested in the amendment that the Deputy submitted.

Is the Deputy choosing not to press the amendment?

I accept that the Deputy is not happy with the situation. Can I take it that he is withdrawing the amendment?

We are only able to deal with what is actually before the House so there could not be any substantial changes.

I am not an expert but I do not think that would be the effect of the amendment.

The debate has taken place based on what was on the Order Paper. We cannot unpick a debate-----

The resolution form of the agreed motion would have no names on it because it would be a decision of the House.

Yes.

In accordance with Standing Order 80(2), the division is postponed until the weekly division time on Wednesday, 24 November 2021.

I ask you to forgive me for reading from my phone, but this message was sent while we were in the Chamber, a Cheann Comhairle: Further to the notification by the Oireachtas service at the Business Committee today of providing free antigen tests to the parliamentary community, we feel it is necessary to ensure that parties and groups would make a full contribution to the cost of these tests if they are used by Members or their staff. We would ask that the arrangements be put in place to ensure that this can be facil…

I move: That, notwithstanding anything in the report adopted by Order of the Dáil of 30th July, 2020, the sequence of allocation to parties and groups of Parliamentary Questions nominated for priority pursuant to Standing Order 49 as contained in the report of the Committee on Standing Orders and Dáil Reform dated 17th November, 2021, entitled ' Temporary rota for Parliamentary Questions nominated for priority ', a copy of which was laid before the Dáil on 18th November, 2021, shall have effect from 23rd November, …

While listening to previous contributions, I was very struck by the affinity of Deputies, particularly those from coastal communities, with the services that serve us so well. The residents of my home town, Tramore, are no different in that they have a deep emotional connection with their helicopter rescue service, R117. The crew often train in the bay. There are nights – often stormy – when we hear the helicopter going over the town and realise it is responding to the call of somebody in trouble. We have a deep co…
