‹ Questions on Proposed Legislation Length of Order of Business slot
Summary
Deputies Martin and Howlin complained that the 15-minute Order of Business slot was inadequate. The Ceann Comhairle said the arrangements would be reviewed at the end of the term and suggested raising the matter through the Dáil reform process.
On a point of order, it is clear that having a 15-minute time slot for the Order of Business is not satisfactory for many Deputies.
