It is proposed to take business as set out on the Order Paper in the following order: Nos. 1 and 8. Questions will be taken at 2.30 p.m. I should mention, perhaps, that the Dáil will adjourn to-day until Tuesday next.
Order of Business.
In view of the fact that we will have Holy Week and Easter Week in the second and third weeks of April, would it be safe to assume that we will have the Budget on 23rd April?
Apart from saying that the Budget will be introduced after Easter, I cannot give any more definite information.
The House will sit on Tuesday next?
From next week, we will be sitting on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.
When will the Dáil rise for Easter?
We have only just come back.
We do not meet in Holy Week or in Easter Week.
When will the Taoiseach be in a position to say what day will be Budget day?
I would not like to say when that will be possible. There are a lot of arguments to be resolved before that.
What did the Taoiseach say?
We have a lot of arguments to resolve before that.
I thought the Taoiseach said "dissolve".
Because of the fact that there will be a public holiday during the week following next week, can we assume that we will sit on Wednesday and Thursday of that week?
We will sit on Wednesday and Thursday in the week of the Bank Holiday.
