It is proposed to adjourn to-night until Tuesday next, and in view of that, I would like to ask that sometime before adjourning this evening, we would take the Fifth Stage of the Public Safety Bill. I think there is a measure of agreement with regard to doing so.
SUSPENSION OF STANDING ORDER. - PUBLIC SAFETY (PUNISHMENT OF OFFENCES) BILL, 1924—FIFTH STAGE.
Mr. O'HIGGINS
May I say that this matter would require formal notice that the Standing Orders should be suspended. It is a motion that will require to be assented to by a majority of the Dáil.
We would require 53 Deputies if there was any objection.
Mr. O'HIGGINS
I now give notice that I am moving the suspension of Standing Order No. 88 in order to enable the Fifth Stage of the Bill to be taken.
I beg to second.
Is there any objection to this course?
With or without objection, you will require 53 Deputies.
53 Deputies thereupon rose in their places.
Permission is granted to make the motion.
Question: "That Standing Order No. 88 be suspended"—put and agreed to.
Mr. O'HIGGINS
I beg to move that the Public Safety (Punishment of Offences) Bill do now pass.
While I agreed to the suspension of the Standing Order for the purpose of allowing this Bill to be put to the Dáil without notice, I am going to oppose the passing of it and I am going to ask the Dáil to divide on it.
Question put.
