Pádraic McCormack (Galway West, Fine Gael)

Perhaps it would be better for the House, particularly on debates on Private Members' business or on the Adjournment, if the Minister came in without a prepared speech and dealt with the debate as it progressed. That would be far better. The Minister wasted his talents through the manner in which he started the debate tonight, unless it was done deliberately to start a debate or crossfire in the House.
