Ciarán Lynch (Cork South Central, Labour)

This is the type of legislation we have been subjected to from the Green Party over the years. The Labour Party will be supporting the legislation this evening. I trust the Minister will leave the Chamber this evening having learned that there is a world of difference between sitting in the office of the Minister and being the Minister. He had an opportunity to legislate in this area and to give the Bill ample time. I trust he will learn the art of legislating before this Government comes to its end.
