Patrick O'Donovan (Limerick, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Given that he could well be part of a Government, he should at least trust himself.

This amendment would prevent a repeat of what Fianna Fáil did with Eircom, Aer Lingus and a couple of other semi-State companies they are conveniently trying to forget about. I do not recall a constitutional referendum being held on depriving people in rural areas of a broadband service for generations or on Aer Lingus withdrawing its services at Shannon Airport.
