Cuirfidh mé an cheist chéanna a chuir mé uair agus uair eile arís. Baineann sé leis an FEMPI legislation. Amárach an lá deireanach chun an tuarascáil faoin FEMPI legislation a chur os comhair an Tí seo. When are we going to see the legislation adhered to? A report is to be brought before the House. The only time we can discuss it is tomorrow, but at the moment it is not on the Order Paper.

The FEMPI legislation, in case people listening in or here in the House do not understand, is the Financial Emergency Measures in the Public Interest Act that was imposed to cut the pay of those in public sector, most of whom earn less than €42,000 a year. The legislation is affecting them very badly. In the autumn, it will be used to penalise teachers in the ASTI which is involved in a dispute over pay.

We cannot get into a debate about the legislation. The Deputy has asked the question.

There is an urgency in not just laying the report before the House to rubberstamp it-----

Can we have an answer from the Tánaiste?

-----but giving us an opportunity to discuss it in a real and meaningful way.

On the same-----

This is the Government's second last opportunity; tomorrow will be the very last opportunity.

If the Deputy takes all of the time, there will be no opportunity to answer.

I raised this issue yesterday and we hope to get an answer to the same question.

The report must be laid before the House by tomorrow and it will be.

Will there be plenty of time for discussion?

Of course, there will be discussion. Deputies discussed the issue this morning at the Business Committee. It is up to the Business Committee to decide when the debate will take place. Deputy Bríd Smith has a representative at the committee. It is a question of agreeing when the debate will take place. The report will be available tomorrow. We will give people time to read and assess it. We will have a debate in the House when the Business Committee decides the debate should take place. There is no problem with doing that whatsoever.

We need to have the debate before the report is signed off on, which means that it has to be done by tomorrow.

The Deputy needs to take to her-----

Does the Government want to shut down the debate tomorrow?

The Deputy needs to have a discussion with her own Whip.

The report has to be laid before the Houses by tomorrow. That is what has to be done by tomorrow and it will be.
