Vol. 492 No. 4
I move:
That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to provide for the expiration of certain prohibition orders made under the Censorship of Publications Acts, 1929 and 1946.
I hope the Government will accept this Bill in view of the importance of today's date and the importance for Irish literature.
Is the Bill being opposed?
No.
Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage under Standing Orders must be taken in Private Members' time.
I move: "That the Bill be taken in Private Members' time."
Given the Government is not opposing the Bill, will the Minister indicate if it is accepting it?
The usual procedures will apply.
It will be taken in Private Members' business.
That matter does not arise at this stage.
