Point of order on targeting claim
Deputy Ciarán Cannon tried to raise a point of order about a serious allegation involving a child and a Member of the Oireachtas, but the Ceann Comhairle repeatedly ruled it out of order. Other Deputies interjected as the Chair insisted it had to be raised by some other route.
Question put: "That the proposed arrangements for this week's business be agreed to."
Do you agree with this result?
I have a point of order and it is important. The Leader of the Opposition corrected the record this morning on a teenager's age but there is a major issue outstanding and it needs to be addressed today.
The Leader of the Opposition knew last year-----

Find some other way to raise it as a point of order should you wish, but it is not a point of order at this juncture.
