Arthur Morgan (Louth, Sinn Fein)

Any person would be a better admiral than the one we are enjoying, or should I say enduring, at the moment because this Bill betrays a lack of vision, accountability and commitment. It represents a surrender to a single element by putting a financial burden around the necks of taxpayers. I commend Deputy Cuffe and the Green Party on these three amendments that could bring a level of accountability and public discussion to the issue. The Minister and the Government have been avoiding such discussions at all levels. We were discussing censorship and muzzling a moment ago and I have never seen any institution that manages to function as restrictively as this.
