Priority question ruled out of order

Summary

Barry questions why a similar question of his was ruled out while others remained on the Order Paper; the Ceann Comhairle offers to discuss the ruling with him.

Before asking a supplementary, may I say that I have one priority question only on today's Order Paper. Another one I had down you ruled out of order, Sir, because a similar question had been asked on 24 March last. In relation to Questions Nos. 59, 34 and 4 similar questions were asked on 24 March last, yet they are on the Order Paper but mine is not. I draw it to your attention, Sir. I should like to discuss with you some time what is the difference between the two.

I will be glad to do so with the Deputy. I am sure there is a very good and cogent reason.
