Senator Humphreys has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business: "That a debate with the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government on the funding of local government be taken today." Is this amendment being pressed?

Comment on this

To co-operate with the Leader in regard to the business of the House, I am going to withdraw the amendment. However, I will possibly reinstate that amendment at a later stage, depending on when the vote takes place in Dublin City Council.

That will be open to the Senator on another day. The amendment is withdrawn.
