I do not think that is a point of order; rather it is a matter of opinion between the Leader and the Senator. It might be clarified tomorrow.

Senator Marc MacSharry has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business, "That a debate with the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government on the opening hours of polling stations in the Meath East by-election tomorrow be taken today." Is the amendment being pressed?
