Vol. 572 No. 1

Ceisteanna – Questions (Resumed). - Priority Questions.

An Leas-Cheann Comhairle

Question No. 60 cannot be taken as Deputy Allen is not present. We will proceed to the next question.

I apologise for Deputy Allen who is on his way. Perhaps the House could take the next question and come back to Question No. 60.

An Leas-Cheann Comhairle

We cannot do that. Standing Orders are clear. If the Deputy is not present when the question is called, it falls.

I am aware of that. I thought you, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle, could facilitate him.

An Leas-Cheann Comhairle

The Chair does not have any power to create a precedent.
