Deputy Murphy, you should not interrupt.

Deputy Murphy-----

-----address your remarks through the Chair.

You are out of order. I ask the Minister of State to conclude his answer.

I call Deputy Stanley.

Deputy O'Flynn, this is-----

Sorry, Deputy O'Flynn, this will be a matter for the legal process.

Deputy O'Flynn-----

Deputy O'Flynn, that is out of order.

It is out of order.

It is out of order in terms of the legal aspect of that case.

You need not, Deputy O'Flynn.

The Deputy has asked a number of questions of the Tánaiste, parts of which I believe are out of order. I ask the Tánaiste to reflect on that. If he can answer any of the other parts that might be relevant to him, the Government or the office, I ask him to do so.

No.

Deputy O'Flynn-----

Deputy O'Flynn, you are out of order.

You are out of order.

No, the Tánaiste-----

The Tánaiste-----

The Tánaiste has suggested that he will come back to the Deputy.

Sorry, just one second, Deputy O'Flynn.

The Tánaiste has explained things. I have tried to explain things to you, Deputy O'Flynn.

I am going to have to rule the question out of order. If Deputy O'Flynn accepts what the Tánaiste has said, he will check to determine what can be said to the House and will reply directly to the Deputy or the House, whatever is deemed legally correct to do. We will move on from there.

Thank you. We will move on.

Is this a legal case?
