We are really concerned about a short-term solution, not a solution for five years hence. Is the Minister of State aware that recently certain changes have been made and extra accommodation has been provided within this House for certain Deputies while others are left to stagnate as they have been doing for the past eight years? Has this escaped the notice of the Minister? As the head of the House, apart altogether from presiding here, will the Ceann Comhairle take into account that Deputy Browne, Deputy Sheridan and I are not consulted, that we have no method of being consulted, and that we have no forum at which we may present our point of view? This is aggravating the situation very much. Rearrangements have been made in the House to the betterment of some Deputies, which I do not deny to them, but if it is to be at the expense of three Deputies it has gone on long enough.

I have noted the views expressed by the Deputy in this House last week and I am having this matter examined.

The three Deputies are not represented on any committee and could they be consulted and have a say in the matter?

That was a different matter from the accommodation problem.

All parties feel this accommodation problem most acutely, not only three Deputies.

Would the Minister come downstairs and see where we are housed at the moment and then go upstairs and see where other Deputies are housed. Single people are occupying beautiful rooms which are scarcely ever used.
