Vol. 81 No. 13
I move:—
That leave be given by the Dáil to introduce the following Supplementary and Additional Estimates for the Services of the year ending on the 31st day of March, 1941, namely:
Votes Nos.:
25 (Law Charges);
33 (Gárda Síochána);
16 (Superannuation and Retired Allowances);
54 (Gaeltacht Services);
59 (Unemployment Insurance and Unemployment Assistance);
63 (Army);
72 (Repayments to the Contingency Fund).
It is proposed that Votes Nos. 16, 33, and 54 might be taken to-day and 25, 59, 63 and 72, perhaps, to-morrow.
I want to raise a point on this matter. Is it proposed to take the Gaeltacht Services Vote before the stock in the Depôt is known? It seems a farce doing that. It is the reverse of all commercial procedure. I would ask the Tánaiste is he going to perpetuate that?
When will the Estimates be circulated?
They are being circulated now, I understand.
Do I understand that the Minister is asking that Estimates Nos. 33, 16 and 54 be taken to-day after item No. 7 has been disposed of?
Yes.
Is the Minister answering my question?
No.
