Confidence in the Minister for Justice and Equality; and Defence: Motion (Resumed) [Private Members]
3:45 pm

I have known the Minister for Justice and Equality for more than 25 years. I have worked with him and witnessed first hand his dedication, commitment and hunger for reform. He has been a pioneer for change over a long number of years as a trail-blazing student campaigner, distinguished lawyer, Member of the Opposition and, now, Government Minister. He has a record of which both he and we can be proud. He is not finished yet.
I refer to the vile material which was disseminated and distributed to the Minister's house today. I am surprised and disappointed that it has not been condemned by Deputy Micheál Martin, the Leader of the Opposition or the leaders of other parties. That should be done.
