Time allowed for priority questions
Barry challenged the Chair’s handling of supplementary questions, and the Chair defended the 15-minute limit and sought Members’ cooperation before calling the next question.
A Cheann Comhairle: I do not remember you being as peremptory with other priority questions yesterday.

Every day I draw the Deputy's attention to the fact that there is only 15 minutes to dispose of priority questions.

There were at least seven or eight supplementary questions to some of the questions asked yesterday.

I seek the co-operation of Members, sometimes I get their co-operation but sometimes I do not.
