Emmet Stagg (Kildare North, Labour)

A total of 15 of the Adjournment debates were taken by one very junior Minister of State, Deputy Áine Brady, and many of the debates did not relate to her area of responsibility. A further seven were taken by another Minister of State, Deputy Calleary. Two thirds of the debates have been taken by two of the most junior Ministers in the House.
