It is proposed to take business as set out in the Order Paper in the following order: Nos. 1, 2, 5 and 3. As Senators are aware, the Minister for Finance is in London and will not be available before tea, so it is expected that No. 5 will finish before tea and that we will start on the Committee Stage of the Finance Bill at 7 o'clock.
An Bille Toghcháin (Leasú) 1961. - Order of Business.
Will we start on the Finance Bill at 7 o'clock, in any event?
Yes.
Is it possible to take motion No. 6, or motion No. 7 in my name?
It is not.
It looks as though we will have time to-day.
No, it is not.
I wish to protest strongly again against the slow progress being made with motions that have been on the Order Paper since last November.
