    Opposition parties have objected to a Government proposal that the Dáil should take a three-month holidays.

    The Dáil is due to rise today, and it will not sit again until the September 29.

    This year's Dáil holidays are a full 12 weeks, longer than in previous years.

    Why do these overpaid people go through the same motions every year. Whatever about the 12 week holiday, every year on the final day of the Dail, the opposition parties object to the length of the holidays, whilst laughing and joking across the floor.

    They have no intention of really objecting to the holidays.
    do they take a vote on it, and do the opposition parties vote against?

    In reality whoever is next in government will also be proposing such a lengthy holiday and Fianna Fail will then oppose it.

    Do they take us for mugs?**


    **I'm presuming they do
