Order of Business.
Are the arrangements for today's business agreed?
We agree to the arrangements in a spirit of co-operation with the Government, to help them to get through the business.
Dún Laoghaire): Is this a record? The Deputy has been saying it every morning.
We are prepared to agree to the arrangements in order to help the Government to get through the financial business of the House.
I wish to raise the serious position that exists because of the closure of the Wicklow factory of Veha——
The Deputy cannot raise it in this manner.
