It is proposed to take business in the following order: Nos. 1, 4 and 5. Private Members' Business will be taken between 6 p.m. and 7.30 p.m.
Order of Business.
Could the Taoiseach tell us when is it proposed to take the Budget?
The present intention is the first week in March but I should not like to be tied down to that date.
It will be before we rise for Easter?
Yes.
Which of the Private Members' motions is to be taken tonight?
As on the Order Paper.
Is that certain? It has not been the practice.
It is now.
Is it not No. 12?
That is so.
So it does not always happen. Poor old Homer.
Do not blame me.
No. 11 is being taken later with the Report Stage of the Housing Bill.
