I wish to raise with the Minister for Finance the issue of funding for Muintir na Tíre, a national organisation whose funding has been cut.

The Deputy is not raising it on the Order of Business.

No. I am raising it under the consumer protection Bill because Muintir na Tíre has served lots of consumers.

It has nothing to do with the consumer protection Bill.

Of course it has.

Funding for Muintir na Tire?

All the people who support it are consumers.

The Deputy is out of order and should resume his seat.

It was founded by Canon Hayes who was a Limerick man, so I appeal to the Minister for Finance to talk to the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government about this please.

The Competition and Consumer Protection Bill is going through the other House and we are expecting amendments back from the Seanad tomorrow.

That question has already been answered. I call Deputy Broughan.
