Not very long. Be as quick as you can as there are two other Deputies looking to contribute in the slot.

The other questions could be responded to in writing because Deputy O'Connor is here and we have to move on to him.

Do we want to hear Deputy O'Donnell or go for a response?

Then we will go to the Minister for a response to Deputy Flatherty.

I am sorry to interrupt but we are running out of time. Deputy Canney is next.

Thank you, Minister. We have to move on. I am not being awkward but I suggest you correspond with Deputy Murphy to respond to her outstanding questions. Deputy Devlin is sharing with colleagues.

As we do not have Members present from Solidarity, the Regional Group, the Rural Independent Group or the Independent Group, I must return to the Minister of State and ask him to respond on behalf of the Government.

I am conscious of the fact that there are four groups that were not in the Chamber but were in the House when their time came up. I am also conscious of the fact that it is difficult for groups to know when they are going to be called and when they are not going to be called. During my period as a Whip for the Opposition, the Opposition Whips co-ordinated and worked through one Whip to ensure that all the groups knew how the debate was progressing and when spokespeople might be required. That is not happening at pr…

It is, and the Deputy has made the case very clearly.

I thank the Deputy. I think he may have been a little harsh on the Minister of State. I doubt he realised that he was going to have to explore the challenges of cutting silage when he came in to take this Topical Issue matter. I am sure the Minister of State will convey the messages he has received to his colleagues. He also has a further response.

The Select Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine has completed its consideration of the following Revised Estimates for public services for the year ending 31 December 2021: Vote 30.

The standing Business Committee has completed its consideration, under Standing Order 30, of the request by the Minister of State at the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment to waive the requirement for pre-legislative scrutiny, under Standing Order 173, of the general scheme and draft heads of the Workplace Relations (Miscellaneous Amendments) Bill 2021, and has agreed thereto.

I thank the Deputy.

No, but the time is up.

Please, Deputy-----

Deputy, please, the time is up.

The Deputy is out of time.

I ask the Deputy to desist. The time is up.

The Taoiseach, without interruption.
