It is proposed to take the business as set out on the Order Paper, items 3 and 4. Item 4 will include Votes 54, 58, 61, 63 and 64. Item 2 will be taken in its appropriate place.
Order of Business.
When is it proposed to take the County Management Bill?
To-morrow.
Will the Minister for Education consent to the recommittal of the Institute for Advanced Studies Bill, 1939, if the Committee Stage is taken to-day, because I have some amendments that I want to move, and I had not time to draft them since last week? Those amendments have been lodged at the office, but they would be late for to-day.
I am quite prepared to do as the Deputy suggests. Of course, it will mean that we will be having practically two Committee Stages. In the circumstances, I do not know if there would be any advantage in going on with it to-day?
You could get the Government amendments. If that arrangement is convenient for the Minister, I am sure it will be quite acceptable to us.
When will Item No. 10 —Housing (Amendment) Bill be circulated?
I understand that the Bill will be circulated to-day.
When will the Milk Bill be circulated?
I cannot say. I think there will be a Milk Bill but whether it will be the present Bill or another, I do not know.
I suppose it is being watered.
Or skimmed.
Will the Minister give an undertaking that the period of waiting for that Bill will not be taken as an excuse for continuing winter prices for milk in Dublin during the summer?
The prices will remain as they are.
Does that mean that the winter prices are to continue to remain for the coming summer?
It is quite possible.
Does the Minister really mean to say——
Deputies are entitled to ask when certain Bills will be taken but in inquiring they may not initiate a discussion on extraneous matters.
