Question Time bell delay

Summary

Blaney said the bell rang late, causing him to miss the first two questions; the Ceann Comhairle regretted the delay but could not confirm when the bell had rung.

I would draw the Chair's attention to the fact that the bell for Question Time did not ring until 2.29 p.m. I came as fast as I could from the other end of the House and missed the first two questions. There may be other Members in the same position.

I am not in a position to say whether or not the bell was rung at the usual time. I regret any delay.
