On the motion for the Adjournment, Deputy Blaney gave notice that he would raise the subject-matter of Questions Nos. 45, 46 and 47 on the Order Paper.

Perhaps he did not know I was taking them.

That Budget has upset everybody over there.

Could we find the missing man?

Perhaps he has had an emergency call; a messenger has gone to find him.

In fairness to Deputy Blaney, I do not want to take advantage of his absence.

If the Deputy gives notice, he might reasonably be expected to be in the House to raise the matter.

The House was very indulgent with me earlier to-day and I should like that the same courtesy would be extended to Deputy Blaney.

It is quite irregular. I shall adjourn the House.

The Dáil adjourned at 10.35 p.m. until 3 p.m. on Thursday, May 5th, 1955.
