Order of Business amendment
Senator Crown proposes taking No. 59 before No. 1 and asks about time for outstanding Committee Stage Bills; the Leader declines to commit but says he will try.
Senator John Crown has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business, "That No. 59 be taken before No. 1." Is the amendment being pressed?

I join in the thanks and praise to Bernard Hand.
Will the Leader clarify if he will make time available for outstanding Bills on Committee Stage before the expiration of the current Oireachtas? If not, I will press for a division on the amendment today.

I am not giving a commitment. I said I would try.
