James Reilly (Dublin North, Fine Gael)

The Minister was not terribly fair to Deputy Shatter, given the manner in which she attacked him on an entirely unrelated matter. He laid out, as only a lawyer can do, a clear demonstration of how she broke her word. I put it to the Minister of State, Deputy Moloney, that he has learned well from his mistress - shoot the messenger and do not deal with the issue.
