I wish to ask a supplementary question on the question I tabled.

The Deputy had time to ask that question. I am moving on. The Deputy allowed others to get in.

It is unfair to allow others to ask supplementaries and not allow a Deputy ask a supplementary on a question he has tabled.

The Chair is being completely inconsistent. I must protest. I should like to add that Deputy Blaney, who had a number of questions, was allowed to dominate Question Time for the first 20 minutes. Why did the Chair allow that? The Chair allowed it because he could not stop him. The Chair is being completely inconsistent.

The Deputy should resume his seat.

It is unfair if Deputy Deasy, who has a question on the Order Paper, is not allowed to ask a supplementary when other Deputies were allowed ask supplementaries even though their names were not to the questions. It is discrimination against a Deputy to do a thing like that.

There is no discrimination. If Deputy Deasy had presented himself he would have been given preference before any Deputy.

If it is not discrimination, it is downright unfair.

I should like to point out again that the Chair must control the length of time spent on a question.

The Chair must control it fairly.

I have only been here yesterday and today and I got the impression that at Question Time Deputy Harte controls the whole show.

I should like to thank the Minister.

The progress we made yesterday and are making today must be of concern to the Deputy's party.

When will the Minister return?
