Mary Upton (Dublin South Central, Labour)

Conducting what is a private inquiry that does not cover September 2008 means we run the serious risk of getting very little real information, not getting all the answers and not learning from our mistakes so we can ensure this will never happen again. The amendment from the Government is designed to provide a convenient smokescreen that edits some of the most important timeframes within which the major decisions were taken. We need an opportunity to see the uncut version of the film and read the unedited script.
