I should like some clarification in regard to Deputy Barry's point. It is a new procedure as far as I am concerned to give notice of intention to raise matters on the Order of Business.

When a Deputy raises something on the Order of Business it is normal practice for the Taoiseach to say he has not had notice of it. I am giving the Government adequate notice now.

For the information of the House, the fact that it has been mentioned now does not provide any assurance that it will be acceptable when raised. The question that will be decided then is whether it is in order to raise it at all.

On the Order of Business the appropriate procedure is to inquire about the matters being taken and whether certain things will be taken and so on. I understand from what Deputy Barry has said that he seems to be treating it as Question Time.

Normally when a Deputy raises a matter on the Order of Business the Taoiseach says that he has not had notice of it. I am giving notice now that in the morning I will want to know what the Government are doing——

The Deputy is notifying me that he will seek to raise it.
