Ministerial Rota for Parliamentary Questions: Motion

Questions in this session

Order of Business 6 speeches

The Minister moved a motion temporarily changing the rota for oral parliamentary questions. The Deputy Speaker then tried to move on to the Appropriation business, but a brief objection led to an adjournment for a 40-minute break, with seasonal good wishes exchanged.

I move:

That, notwithstanding anything in the Order of the Dáil of 12th December, 2017, setting out the rota in which Questions to members of the Government are to be asked, Questions for oral answer, following those next set down to the Minister for Employment Affairs and Social Protection, shall be set down to Ministers in the following temporary sequence:

Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform

Minister for Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht

Taoiseach and Minister for Defence

Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade

Minister for Finance

Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government

whereupon the sequence established by the Order of 12th December, 2017, shall continue with Questions to the Minister for Education and Skills.”

I think we all need a rest. Beidh sos againn ar feadh 40 bomaite. Tá súil agam go mbeidh mé ar ais sa Chathaoir ach, ag an phointe seo, guím gach rath agus bliain úr faoi mhaise ar gach duine.
