Vol. 316 No. 12

Turf Development Bill, 1979: Order for Second Stage.

Bill entitled an Act to amend and extend the Turf Development Acts, 1946 to 1975.

I move that the Second Stage be ordered for Tuesday, 27 November, 1979.

Question put and agreed to.

On a point of order, if we want to have order, may I ask the Leas-Cheann Comhairle again?

I cannot hear the Minister of State.

Would Deputy Blaney please conduct himself?

I am conducting myself.

The business we have just gone through was under Standing Order No. 38 and Deputy Blaney is well able to read that for himself. If Deputy Blaney wishes to obstruct the business of the House, the Chair will have to deal with Deputy Blaney. We are now dealing with the next business.

No, Sir, you have not gone from the Order of Business yet, never mind anything else; I have items to raise on that and the rules——

Will Deputy Blaney please resume his seat?

I am entitled, on the Order of Business, to query the Order of Business.

We have gone from the Order of Business.

No, Sir, you have not.

Will Deputy Blaney please resume his seat? Will Deputy Blaney please leave the House?

I disagree with the abuse of your privilege in the Chair, Sir. I am entitled to raise matters on the Order of Business and there is nothing in the rules to prevent me from doing so.

I must ask that Deputy Blaney be named.
