Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Sinn Féin does not oppose No. 24b, but it has a real problem with the proposal regarding the basic right of each Teachta Dála to bring forward a Private Members' Bill.

That is for Government as well as Opposition Deputies. The Government should not in any way seek to obstruct or prevent that.
