Vol. 1010 No. 5

Mandatory Hotel Quarantine Extension: Motion (Resumed)

The following motion was moved by the Minister of State at the Department of Health, Deputy Anne Rabbitte, on 14 July 2021:
That Dáil Éireann resolves that the relevant period, within the meaning of section 9 of the Health (Amendment) Act 2021 (No. 1 of 2021), shall stand extended for the period beginning on the 1st day of August, 2021 and ending on the 31st day of October, 2021.

I must now deal with a postponed division relating to the motion regarding the extension of relevant period within the meaning of section 9 of the Health (Amendment) Act 2021. Yesterday, on the question, "That the motion be agreed to", a division was claimed and, in accordance with Standing Order 80(2), that division must be taken now.

I must salute Gavan O'Reilly, the intrepid political correspondent of Virgin Media, who today highlighted the irony that the block voting system was introduced as a family-friendly initiative of Dáil Éireann and it is now 2.29 a.m. as we take this business.
