Vol. 496 No. 5

Suspension of Member.

I move: "That Deputy McCormack be suspended from the service of the Dáil."

Question put.

In accordance with Standing Orders, the division will take place on Tuesday next at the beginning of business.

That is outrageous.

People are probably dying.

The Deputy must now leave the House.

There must be a division.

Read the book.

Somebody give the Opposition a copy of Standing Orders.

I ask the Deputy to leave the House.

There will be suspensions all day.

Why must the Deputy leave the House when the Minister for Health and Children is not in the House to answer questions?

I have no difficulty leaving the House on behalf of the people of Galway.

It will make great news at home.

This morning on local radio——

I will suspend the sitting for a further ten minutes.

That is a disgrace.

Sitting suspended at 11.12 a.m. and resumed at 11.22 a.m.
