Late notice of disallowed question

Summary

Wyse complains that he was told at the last minute that his question had been disallowed. The Ceann Comhairle says the matter will be investigated, then closes questions for the day.

I submitted a similar question which was disallowed. I am not questioning the reasons for its disallowance but it is an extraordinary thing that I was not notified until the 11th hour that my question had been disallowed. That is a very bad practice and spokesmen should be told well in advance the reason for a question being disallowed so that it could be submitted as a priority.

I note what the Deputy said. I would be surprised if my office were remiss in that regard and I will have the matter investigated.

That disposes of questions for today.
