West Cork and Kerry land deals question ruling

Summary

Deputy Allen challenged the ruling that his Private Notice Question about investigating land deals in west Cork and Kerry lacked urgency. The Ceann Comhairle declined to revisit the decision and told him not to raise the matter.

I put down a Private Notice Question in relation to the land deals in west Cork and Kerry asking what proposals the Minister for Justice had to carry out an investigation into the contents of last night's "Today Tonight". I was told by your staff that my question lacked urgency.

Deputy Allen, please resume your seat. I informed the Deputy the reasons for his question being disallowed. I have nothing to add to that here. If he requires further elaboration he can consult my office but he may not raise it now.
