It is hard to discuss the Order of Business when we cannot even have order in the Chamber. This issue is of serious importance. Thousands of euro of debt hang over each citizen of the State. Taxes and the provision of public services are at stake. A generation is at tipping point. We need more than shadow boxing on this issue. We need a real debate, provided by the Government, on this issue.

The Cabinet will meet today to discuss the promissory note deal with the ECB. The Minister is right. The country knows the Government was engaged in crisis management last night. Today is different and the Government can design what happens. There is space today to have a debate. If space cannot be found for a debate today it could be held tomorrow.

It is also important that finance spokespeople have a proper briefing on this occasion, and not the microwave walk-through that happened yesterday. It did not serve the debate or the country well.

Fianna Fáil and Sinn Féin did not seek, through their Whips, to have a debate on this motion in the House when it came back from committee. There was no request.

We emailed the Chief Whip.

That did not happen. Can Deputy Martin show me the e-mail? Can he produce it?

I was assured by the Minister of State, Deputy Jan O'Sullivan, a few seconds ago that she was at the committee, there was a full and comprehensive debate on the matters being addressed and there was no request from any member of the committee that there be a return to a full plenary session. The committee did not express dissatisfaction with the way it was debated or request that it be referred to the full House. Deputy Martin's business manager, the Fianna Fáil whip, did not seek to have a debate, nor did the other Opposition Whips.

I am quite entitled to request a plenary session of the House.

He is not entitled to mislead people.

Deputy Martin is quite entitled to ask. He is long enough in this House, probably not long enough in opposition but long enough in this House, to know how business is done and he has not done his business properly.

And the Minister has.

We will now deal with the third proposal.

I am not disagreeing with this proposal but I wish to comment on it. It relates to Topical Issues. Today's most topical issue is the potential for a negotiated deal on the promissory note. Surely there should be provision of time to discuss that issue today.

Is the proposal for dealing with Leaders' Questions, Topical Issues and Oral Questions agreed to? Agreed. Is the proposal for the sitting and business of the Dáil tomorrow agreed? Agreed.
