Brendan Kenneally (Waterford, Fianna Fail)

It is more important that we get on with our work here. I, along with my colleagues in Waterford, Deputies Deasy and O'Shea, are capable of representing the views and wishes of the people of Waterford in the House and will continue to do that. Nobody is coming into my clinics in Waterford to ask me when we will have a by-election and saying that we should have one. Their focus is on jobs; that is what our focus should be and we should concentrate on that.
