Question put.
The Dáil divided by electronic means.

As a teller in the previous electronic vote and under Standing Order 69, I seek a vote other than by electronic means because of the importance of the issue and the disrespect being shown to the House.

As a teller, Deputy Stagg is entitled under Standing Order 69 to call a vote through the lobby.

Question again put.
