Manseragh govt rep
Whistleblower protection amendment tabled by FG in Dáil is one of these back in Seanad.
Any of the independents or Labour Senators in the House?
Ivana Bacik is there - can't see anyone else yet.
David Norris is surprised to be back in the Seanad this evening.
He welcomes the fact that it's FG amendments that are being accepted.
Norris said he voted against the Bill - says he is very worried about the Bill - says a Mr. Matthews told him that he's worried too.
In his 22 years in the house Norris has never experienced this particular move before of bringing the bill back to the Seanad again.
lol Norris Bill like a boomerang
There is a lot of back slapping going on
Mansergh has met Mr. Matthews too. Mansergh says we cannot have the paralysis of analysis.
Amendments are being agreed without votes. Nearly there.
A message is now being sent to the Dáil saying that it's all been agreed.
Whomever has a matter on the adjournment has not shown up to make their speech yet.
Cecelia Keaveny makes a speech about youth rights and defining when a child is a child and a youth is youth.
So is the Dail to sit again now?
gah.. missed it!
Not sure if it's sitting or just listening to a message and just seen it`s gone for the week too - so no going to the Aras yet then.
Now it's over. NAMA bill to be sent to The President next week.
Thanks to everyone that pitched in. Embed code available from me.
