‹ Order of Business Debate on Referendum Rejection
Summary
Deputy Timmins condemns the failure to allow debate on the public’s rejection of the Government’s referendum proposal; the Chair thanks him.
I am not blaming you, a Leas-Cheann Comhairle. It shows how dysfunctional this House has become. We had a referendum last week. We have not even been given five minutes on the Order Paper to discuss the rejection by the people of this country of a proposition that was put to them by the Government. It is outrageous that ordinary Members have not even been five seconds to discuss the issue.
