Gerry Adams (Louth, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Can I make it clear that I have no objections, nor should anyone, to the Oireachtas looking at any allegations of abuse of any kind, especially child abuse? The Fianna Fáil leader and the Taoiseach have made grievous accusations against me that I reject utterly. Neither the Taoiseach nor the leader of Fianna Fáil, who is sitting within feet of me, have ever come to me and asked for my version of these events.
