No voters given 7% of Nice debate time, says SF

LESS than two hours of the more than 22 hours of Dáil debate on the Nice Treaty was allocated to the No side, Sinn Féin said yesterday.

Sinn Féin TDs walked out of the Dáil in protest at the lack of time being allocated to them to express their opposition to the Nice Treaty.

On the final day of the Dáil debate on the Treaty, SF Louth TD Arthur Morgan was ejected from the chamber after demanding speaking time.
