It is proposed to take No. 20a, motion re membership of committee; No. 20b, motion re leave to introduce Supplementary Estimates [Votes 20, 21 and 22]; No. 20c, motion re referral of Supplementary Estimates [Votes 20, 21 and 22] to Select Committee; No. 36, Finance Bill 2014 - Report Stage (resumed) and Final Stage; No. 9, Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2014 - Second Stage (resumed); and No. 37, Workplace Relations Bill 2014 - Report Stage (resumed) and Final Stage.

It is proposed, notwithstanding anything in Standing Orders, that: (1) in the event a division is in progress at the time fixed for taking Private Members’ business, the Dáil shall sit later than 9 p.m. tonight and Private Members’ business which shall be No. 175, motion re human rights budgeting (resumed) shall, if not previously concluded, be brought to a conclusion after 90 minutes; (2) Nos. 20a and 20b shall be decided without debate, and subject to the agreement of No. 20b, No. 20c (referral to Select Committee), shall be decided without debate and any division demanded thereon shall be taken forthwith; (3) the proceedings on the resumed Report and Final Stages of No. 36 shall, if not previously concluded, be brought to a conclusion at 7.30 p.m. tonight by one question which shall be put from the Chair, and which shall, in relation to amendments, include only those set down or accepted by the Minister for Finance.

Tomorrow’s Business after oral questions shall be: No. 38, Merchant Shipping (Registration of Ships) Bill 2013 [Seanad] - Order for Report, Report and Final Stages; No. 39, Civil Registration (Amendment) Bill 2014 [Seanad] - Order for Report, Report and Final Stages; and No. 9, Health Insurance (Amendment) Bill 2014 - Second Stage (resumed).

There are three proposals to be put to the House. Is the proposal for dealing with Private Members' business agreed to? Agreed. Is the proposal for dealing with Nos. 20a, 20b and 20c, motions re membership of committee, leave to introduce and referral of Supplementary Estimates, without debate agreed to? Agreed. Is the proposal for dealing with No. 36, Report and Final Stages of the Finance Bill 2014 agreed to?

I do not agree to that because we have had much discussion about the guillotining of legislation. This relates to the Finance Bill 2014 and I do not think a time limit should be put on it. The motion is that only one vote shall be taken if the debate is not concluded. It is time that the House moved away from unnecessary guillotining of legislation to allow it run its course. It may run its course anyway but as a principle we need to assert that.

The Bill is moving through the House very quickly. I do not have any objection to more time being granted to it.

The Government should remove the guillotine.

If the Government removes the guillotine we will work with the Whips and engage on this.

The Deputies could work with the Whips who are anxious to give everyone an opportunity. We have no intention of requiring guillotines. There are some time constraints which I could read out but perhaps the Whips could discuss this.

I suggest that the matter be reviewed during the day.

The Bill will have to be completed tonight but we can give it more time.

Is it agreed that the matter be reviewed during the day? Agreed.
