It is proposed to take item No. 3 only. It is not proposed to sit to-morrow.
Order of Business.
When is it proposed to take items Nos. 4 and 5, two Bills which were circulated before the recess, and can the Taoiseach give us some indication now of the full programme for next week?
No. 4 has not been circulated yet. The State Guarantees Bill, I should imagine, will be taken next week.
It has been set down for next Wednesday.
What will the programme for next week be?
The External Relations Bill on Wednesday and then the State Guarantees Bill.
No. I am sorry; I was thinking of the Supplies and Services Bill.
If No. 3 is the only business for to-day, is it proposed to continue the discussion up to 10.30 p.m.?
For the remainder of the six hours.
And then adjourn?
Yes.
In view of the limited time available for finishing the debate, will arrangements be made to ensure that all Deputies wishing to speak will have an opportunity of doing so?
As there is only an extra hour and a half, perhaps it would be as well to let the debate carry on until 10.30 p.m.
Very good; you can talk yourselves out.
The reply will be called for not later than 10 p.m.
