I would like the Taoiseach to withdraw the remark that I am a right-wing doctor.

This is Leaders' Questions. Deputy Cowley is out of order and I ask him to resume his seat. He will have to find another way to raise the matter. If he does not resume his seat, I will have no option other than to ask him to leave the House.

Ceann Comhairle, I was obliged to give up my practice. I am in the Dáil——

The Deputy decided to enter public life. He should either stick with it or return to his practice.

If the Deputy wishes to leave the House, the Chair will facilitate him.

I am a Member of the Dáil because I am interested in obtaining equality for people. That equality is not being achieved.

I ask the Deputy to resume his seat and allow the Taoiseach to conclude Leaders' Questions.

People are not obtaining equality——

The Deputy must resume his seat.

Ceann Comhairle——

I am asking the Deputy for the final time to resume his seat.

Ceann Comhairle, what I am——

It is obvious to the Chair that the Deputy wishes to leave the House. I ask him to do so now.

I will leave the House. However, I just want to say that I am not——

The Taoiseach must be allowed to conclude Leaders' Questions.

Ceann Comhairle, I am——

As the Deputy will not leave, I move: "That the Deputy be suspended from the service of the Dáil." Is the motion agreed?

No.

Under Standing Order 61, any division is postponed to take place immediately before the Order of Business on the next sitting day. The Deputy must leave the House now.

Ceann Comhairle, the man to whom I referred earlier——

The Deputy must leave the House. If he does not do so, I will have no choice but to suspend the sitting.

I accept the Chair's ruling. However, I must state that——

I ask Deputy Cowley to leave the House.

The man in question is——

Does the Deputy wish me to suspend the sitting?

I will leave the House. Go raibh maith agat.
