It is proposed to take business in the following Order: Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 12. Private Members' Business will be taken from 6 p.m. to 7.30 p.m. when the debate will be resumed on No. 23.

Will Deputy Lynch please allow me to hear what the Taoiseach is saying?

It is not as important as what we are talking about.

You are all in very bad humour today.

It is a beastly thing to do, to sell the Irish fisherman to the wholesale fishmongers. Some of the Taoiseach's Deputies agree with me.

On a point of order, I regret to say I cannot hear what is going on.

I have asked the Deputies for order to allow me to read out the Order of Business as announced by the Taoiseach. I will repeat it: Nos. 1, 2, 3 and 12; Private Members' Business from 6 to 7.30 p.m., item No. 23.
