Postponed parliamentary questions

Summary

Barry objected that postponed questions might not be answered for months; O’Leary said Deputies had requested postponement because they could not attend. Lalor criticised the disruption over attendance at a soccer match, and the Chair said the remaining questions would appear on the next day’s Order Paper.

Peter Barry Mr. P. Barry Fine Gael

Some questions have been postponed today and these may not come up for answer again for two or three months. Perhaps the Minister would answer those now.

Comment on this

I agreed with some Deputies to postpone a number of questions because it was not possible for the Deputies concerned to be present.

Comment on this

The proceedings of the House have been interfered with simply because some Deputies wished to attend a soccer match.
