Jerry Buttimer (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I do not label myself liberal or conservative. Some people might on the basis of certain things I am doing but I consider myself to be balanced.

One empowers people. One changes the culture. To do that, one takes the policy platform that is Healthy Ireland, out to the people and one engages with them. Deputy Pringle may disagree with me but our fundamentals will get us to the point in the road where we will change the culture. We did it with tobacco. We did it with drink driving. We did it with seat belts.
