I thank the Tánaiste. I will start as I mean to go on.
I thank the Tánaiste. We will move on.
I thank the Tánaiste. We move now to the leader of the Labour Party, Deputy Ivana Bacik.
I thank the Deputy. We now move to the deputy leader of the Social Democrats, Deputy Cian O'Callaghan.
Apologies, I was not aware. That is no problem, I call Deputy Hearne.
We move to a representative of the regional technical group convened by Deputy Michael Lowry.
We move to the technical group convened by Deputy Boyd Barrett. I call Deputy Healy.
Is that agreed? Agreed. You have a minute each.
The Deputy’s time is up. He should conclude to be fair to his colleagues.
Thank you. The Deputy’s time is up. I call her colleague, Deputy Boyd Barrett.
The Deputy is running down her colleague’s time.
Deputy Coppinger, if there is no time left your colleague will not be able to speak.
Deputy Boyd Barrett, you have 20 seconds.
Thank you, Deputy, your colleague is signalling to speak. You have 16 seconds, Deputy.
Thank you. We move to the technical group convened by Deputy Michael Collins.
That concludes the contributions on the nomination of Taoiseach.
I must inform Members that it has been agreed with the Whips and the conveners that we will now have contributions from parties and proposed technical groups with an agreed allocation of time for each party and group. I take the opportunity to say to Members that time is time. If you are sharing time and you go over your time, you will eat into your colleagues' time. That is how we propose to carry on in the Thirty-f…
Thank you, so it is An Tánaiste.
It is a 15-minute speech.
I apologise to the Regional Group. There was a problem with the rotation; that group should have been first. The Regional Group, convened by Deputy Lowry, has speakers Deputies Harkin and Toole, who have six minutes.
We now move to the technical group convened by Deputy Michael Collins. It has six minutes shared between Deputies Richard O'Donoghue, Michael Healy-Rae, O'Flynn, Gogarty and Danny Healy-Rae.
I call Deputy Paul Gogarty.
We now move to the topic of the adjournment of the Dáil. The House must now decide when it will next sit. Accordingly, I call the Government Chief Whip, Deputy Naughton, to make a proposal on the adjournment of the House.
Is that agreed?
