Vol. 585 No. 2

Suspension of Member: Expression of Regret.

I have received from Deputy Gogarty, who was suspended from the service of the Dáil on 6 May for disregarding the authority of the Chair, a written and approved expression of regret. It reads as follows:

11 May 2004

Dear Ceann Comhairle,

In accordance with Standing Order 61(3), I wish to apologise for my behaviour in the House on Thursday last, 6 May. I regret my refusal to obey your ruling calling me to resume my seat and the disruption which led to my suspension.

Your sincerely,

Paul Gogarty.

In accordance with Standing Order 61(3)(b), I move:

"That the order of the House of 6 May suspending Deputy Gogarty from the service of the House be discharged."

Question put and agreed to.
