Mary Lou McDonald (Dublin Central, Sinn Fein)

Reports in the media today suggest something may be brewing in the discussions between France and Germany. It would be unacceptable if the Taoiseach were to fail to present himself before the House to give us a full account of the summit and reassure Deputies and the people as a whole - the taxpayers and citizens of the State - that he has finally taken a stand, done the right thing and represented the interests of citizens fully and fairly.
