The Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine, Deputy Creed, is taking parliamentary questions in the Lower House. I have just received a communication asking us to suspend for ten minutes because the Minister is running late. As such and notwithstanding the Order of Business, I propose that No. 1 be taken ten minutes later than agreed. I apologise to the House for this.
Gnó an tSeanaid - Business of Seanad
Is that agreed? Agreed.
Sitting suspended at 4.38 p.m. and resumed at 5 p.m.
