‹ An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Parliamentary language on honesty
Summary
The Chair objected to the Taoiseach's use of the word 'dishonest' and asked that it be withdrawn, leading to a brief exchange over acceptable language. The Taoiseach eventually substituted a softer formulation.
That concludes questions on promised legislation.
It is really not in order or in keeping with the traditions of the House to accuse Members of dishonesty. I think it goes a little bit beyond the normal political charge.
Comment on this
I do not think that is allowable either under the Standing Order.
