Mr. S. Dunne Mr. S. Dunne

Mr. S. Dunne: I was grossly insulted here by a so-called representative of the Bible Belt and I am not going to leave the House, as a protest against that kind of attack, which I will not take from him or any of his class.

An Ceann Comhairle Patrick (Clare) Hogan

An Ceann Comhairle: The House has decided that Deputy S. Dunne is to leave the House. I ask him again to leave the House.

Mr. S. Dunne Mr. S. Dunne

Mr. S. Dunne: With respect to the Chair, I feel I must take this stand in the interest of ordinary good manners in this House. If nobody else will inculcate it, I will do my best to do so.

Mr. Cluskey Mr. Cluskey

Mr. Cluskey: They would not know what he is talking about.

Mr. Andrews Mr. Andrews
