Jerry Buttimer (Cork South Central, Fine Gael)

This referendum on 31 May is a question that is being put to the people. It is the most important question on which the Irish people have been asked to vote since the foundation of the State. I was disappointed with Deputy Donnelly when he said he did not know whether he would vote "Yes" or "No". He should have told us why he was going to vote "Yes", but he did not.
