An Cathaoirleach: When is it proposed to sit again?

Mr. Ferris Mr. Ferris

Mr. Ferris: It is proposed to sit tomorrow morning at 10.30 to take, I hope, all Stages of the Health (Family Planning) (Amendment) Bill.

Mrs. Honan Mrs. Honan

Mrs. Honan: Could I ask the Deputy Leader of the House if there are still Senators wishing to speak at a particular time if he would indicate if we are sitting late or going into next week? There was talk this afternoon that we may be sitting until 10.30 or 11 p.m. as the Minister wanted the Bill out of the House.

Mr. Ferris Mr. Ferris

Mr. Ferris: The Minister did not say he wanted the Bill out of the House. He was prepared to sit until 10.30 p.m. to facilite the House and any speakers offering. In our discussions last week with the Opposition we had hoped we would have the Bill in two days. There is no intention on our part to stop anybody speaking.

Mr. Killilea Mr. Killilea

Mr. Killilea: We will discuss it in the morning.
