Adjournment of Dáil under Standing Order 31: Irish Ferries Dispute.
6:00 pm
Tony Gregory (Dublin Central, Independent)
We, the Independent Deputies, called on the Government to initiate EU-wide legislative measures against the attempt to do so. Fianna Fáil and the Progressive Democrats voted against that motion and proceeded to take no action whatever. The Taoiseach issued a statement weeks later contending there was nothing else he could do. He effectively gave the green light to Irish Ferries to proceed with its plan.
