Order of Business

Summary

The Leader proposes the day’s scheduled motions, including appointments and committee-related business, to be taken without debate.

The Order of Business is No. 1, motion re the appointment as Ombudsman of Mr. Peter Tyndall, to be taken without debate at the conclusion of the Order of Business; No. 2, motion re the appointment as Information Commission of Mr. Peter Tyndall, to be taken without debate at the conclusion of No. 1; No. 3, motion re report of the Joint Committee on Transport and Communications recommending the communication of a reasoned opinion to the Presidents of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission, to be taken without debate at the conclusion of No. 2; No. 4, motion re referral to the Joint Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on jurisdiction, recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters and a proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on the use of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny, to be taken without debate at the conclusion of No. 3; and No. 5, Social Welfare and Pensions Bill 2013 - Second Stage, to be taken at the conclusion of No. 4, with the contributions of group spokespersons not to exceed ten minutes and those of all other Senators not to exceed six minutes. I hope to conclude the debate at 6 p.m., with the Minister for Social Protection to reply at 5.45 p.m. It was agreed that more than three hours would be sufficient for the debate on Second Stage, but, as I stated previously, I have no intention of guillotining the debate on the Bill on any Stage during the week.
