Seanad legislative workload

Summary

Senator Norris rejects claims of a shortage of legislation, arguing that the Order Paper is full but the Government is deliberately preventing the Seanad from progressing it.

I disagree with my colleague, Senator Byrne, as there is no dearth of legislation at all. Anyone who looks at the Order Paper can see this quite clearly. It contains more than 30 Bills and there are three or four pages of Bills listed. I have never seen so much legislation on the Order Paper and have never seen less in the House.
