The Dáil meets on certain days at a certain hour, and, as a rule, Deputies travel by train, or used to do so when travelling conditions were somewhat different from what they are to-day, and what they have been for the last 12 months or two years. For some time, it was possible for Deputies to use their cars, and these cars were used for long distances, with the result that travelling expenses were somewhat greater than they should normally be. The number of sittings were also greater than in the previous year. These are the main contributing factors to the increase. I thought that, on account of this being a matter which concerned ourselves, we would not be too critical of these matters.
