UK referendum outcome statements

Summary

Deputy Brendan Howlin asks whether Friday will include statements on the UK referendum result. The Ceann Comhairle says the Business Committee will consider it, with efforts to facilitate a debate and the amended Friday business then agreed.

May I ask about Friday's business?

Comment on this

Yes.

Comment on this

It is my understanding that there was to be time on Friday for statements on the outcome of the referendum in the UK. Is it still envisaged that there will be a discussion on that topic?

Comment on this

That has been requested. It is to be considered by the Business Committee on Wednesday.

Comment on this

The agenda for that day is completely full already.

Comment on this

An amendment can be tabled if necessary, if the Business Committee so agrees.

Comment on this

We might need time for reflection and have statements later.
