Is the proposal that the Dáil, on its rising today, shall adjourn until 2 p.m. on Tuesday, 9 June 2015 agreed to?

It is not agreed. In light of the difficulties we have had in convincing the Government to have an appropriate debate on the Aer Lingus sale and its unwillingness to utilise the committee structure-----

Fianna Fáil had nobody in the Chamber yesterday evening.

-----we believe the House should sit next week-----

Nobody.

Be careful, James.

-----to continue that debate rather than having it guillotined at the end of today. It is worth noting that since before Easter, a period of 70 days, this House will have only sat for 18 days up to 9 June.

Hypocrisy.

That is notwithstanding the commitments this Government made to longer sitter periods and greater numbers of sittings on Fridays.

Fianna Fáil was probably only here for nine of those days.

The Government is still trying to railroad through this House important decisions that need to be appropriately debated and addressed. We are seeing it again today and we saw it with the Irish Water and so many other Bills that were guillotined and forced through the House without appropriate debate.

Rubbish.

Shameful.

It is on that basis that our party is opposing the notion of taking next week off.

It is absolute nonsense.

At the same time, the Government is ramming through a decision that will have long-term and profound effects, not just for the workers in the airline but for the island of Ireland.

Hear, hear.

We are sitting 20% more than when the Deputy's party was in government.

All I can say is that legislation has been truncated or collapsed on several occasions recently in the House because, in particular, nobody from the Deputy's party was around.

That is not true.

It is untrue.

It had nobody here last night.

Yesterday evening-----

That is a big fat lie.

The list is there on the record-----

The Independents have many Bills ready.

-----of the Dáil. For example, I am not aware there were any Fianna Fáil people in the House yesterday evening for significant sections of the debate, not even a lonely spokesperson.
