I ask the Taoiseach to please stick to the time.
One question, not ten. Deputy Shane Moynihan is next.
The Deputy can correspond further.
It is not Deputy McGuinness's question and there is no back and forth.
Deputy, please.
Do it in your own time, Deputy.
I thank the Deputy.
The Deputy has asked his question.
The Deputy will have plenty of time during recess to get his ears checked. His time is up.
The Deputy is on "RTÉ News: Six One" now.
Deputy, please resume your seat. To be fair, other Deputies will miss out because of Deputy Healy-Rae.
Other Deputies will miss out. The Taoiseach's time is up.
Deputy, this is not a back and forth.
I hope Members take time to reflect during recess on the format of these debates. The format is one minute each way. We are out of time because of the behaviour of some Deputies. That means there are two Deputies still on the list. I am going to allow it. It is no fault of those Deputies, but stay within the time. I call Deputy Conor Sheehan.
I thank the Deputy.
Deputy, please.
Minister, the time is up.
It is not Deputy McDonald's time. There is a sequence and a format.
Deputy Newsome Drennan is on her feet. I ask the Minister please to resume her seat.
Minister, please stop interrupting.
Deputy, time is up.
I call the Minister of State, Deputy Troy.
It is not usual but it is at my discretion if the Minister wishes to share time with the Minister of State. There will be no extra time. I note, for the attention of the women in the Gallery, that I am allowing this because, as they appreciate, this is a very important topic. The guests are indicating they have no objection. I call the Minister.
Thank you, Deputy Doherty.
