Cuisle amendment withdrawn
Leyden accepted the Leader's proposal for a debate on Cuisle instead of No. 2. He said he welcomed a Ministerial statement on whether the closure could be deferred, and the House agreed the revised timetable.
I thank the Leader of the House for granting my request for a debate on this matter. He is aware of the sensitivities of this issue. I am pleased that the Minister of State with responsibility for disability issues will come to the House to outline the latest position and say whether the closure can be deferred for six months or a year to enable us to sit down and try to solve this problem. That is all.
Comment on this
The amendment is withdrawn. The Leader of the House has proposed an amendment to the Order of Business: "That a debate on the imminent closure of the Cuisle accessible holiday centre be taken for one hour after the conclusion of No. 1; and that No. 2 be taken for one and a half hours on the conclusion of that debate." Is that agreed? Agreed.
