On the Order of Business, may I ask if the Taoiseach has any statement to make regarding the Valuation Bill which was introduced by Deputies O'Higgins, Sweetman and myself and to which this House has given a First Reading?

Comment on this

No.

Do I understand the Taoiseach to say "No"?

Comment on this

I have no statement to make.

Comment on this

Have I to take it therefore that the Taoiseach proposes to take over this Bill, without any acknowledgment or mention of it? The Taoiseach mentioned this in his statement over the week-end.

Comment on this

On a point of order. May I suggest that the Deputy is breaking the rules of the House? He is not raising any question on the Order of Business. He is just having a little bit of propaganda.

Injured innocence.

Who issued the statement on Saturday night? It was not I.

The Deputy can issue one next Saturday night.

You have been talking about valuation for 18 years. May I ask the Taoiseach if he proposes to introduce farm buildings in the measure? They were not mentioned in the statement or in the Irish Press.

That is another matter.
