This is a perennial issue, but I understand that we are now taking 16 questions in the first tranche, varying from dealing with the undocumented to a meeting with the governor of Texas. In the third tranche we are taking one question. It seems that we have to do things better than to give 15 minutes to 16 questions and then 15 minutes to one question.

Except that one question is mine.

I am happy for the Deputy to ask it.

I am joking.

There are nine questioners. It seems that it is impossible to deal with nine people posing questions in 15 minutes. Would Members be agreeable to allocating two blocks of questions?

The last questions are mine.

We will go with the three minutes.

How much time is the Ceann Comhairle allocating for each block?

There is 15 minutes for each block.

I would be happy to cut my very specific question about correspondence to six or seven minutes-----

It is important.

-----and then give extra time to the other two.

In that case we will give an extra nine minutes to the first 16.

I am so helpful.

The Deputy is.

I ask Members to be succinct.
