I should like to say that I have been examining the possibilities of how best to expedite the consideration of this Bill and the remaining business which we have on the Order Paper and other important business which is coming from the Dáil. I should like to submit the following proposal with that end in view —that we meet on Tuesday next, 10th March, at 3 p.m. to deal with important business as distinct from the Third Amendment of the Constitution Bill; that on Wednesday we resume consideration of that Bill and make every endeavour to put the question on sub-section (1º) at 6 p.m. and the question on sub-section (2º) at 10 p.m., and that on Thursday we resume consideration of the Bill and complete the Committee Stage on Thursday night.
I might add that the Central Fund Bill will be completed in the Dáil next week, and will be sent to the House for consideration and must be passed before Easter. It is, therefore, proposed that we meet the following week, on the 18th March, the day after St. Patrick's Day, to deal with the Central Fund Bill and, when completed, to adjourn for Easter. I should like to have the views of the Leader of the Opposition on that.
