The Taoiseach to respond.
I remind Members that they have one minute for questions to the Taoiseach and that he has one minute for answers. If their questions are longer than 60 seconds, they are asking them in the wrong forum.
The Taoiseach to respond.
Time is up, Deputy Bacik. Prepare in time. The Taoiseach to respond.
Deputy, your time is up. You need to prepare in time.
The Deputy is taking absolute advantage and is using her colleagues' time.
I call Deputy Seamus Healy. The time is up Taoiseach. Deputy Healy is on his feet.
The Deputy will have to learn to read faster. I call the Taoiseach to respond.
We have two Members waiting. We have taken the number of Members required but we will take the remaining two Members. I ask them to be brief.
Time is up, Taoiseach.
It is a very good question.
For this evening, both the Taoiseach and I combined-----
There is no homework this evening for the students.
It is not for you.
Amendments Nos. 1 and 2 are related and may be discussed together.
Before we move on, I caution Members with regard to mentioning the names of people who are not present or are outside the House. While it can be Deputies' opinion, it is not fair to use derogatory terms when there is no one here to defend themselves. That is a caution, please.
Please, Deputy. Put your hand up if you want to speak.
Look at Deputy Healy-Rae.
It was not his phone that rang and he thinks he is a hero.
I call Deputy Michael Collins.
I thank the Minister. He will have an opportunity to come back in. The first person indicating is Deputy Richard Boyd Barrett.
As the time for this debate has expired-----
The time permitted for this debate having expired, I am required to put the following question in accordance with the order of the Dáil of 12 May 2026: "That Fourth Stage is hereby completed and that the Bill is hereby passed." Is that agreed?
I must now deal with a postponed division relating to the motion regarding flat regeneration. On Wednesday, 6 May 2026, on the question, "That the amendment to the motion be agreed to", a division was claimed and in accordance with Standing Order 85(2), that division must be taken now.
