Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

We can do this. It is up to us. It is within our gift to decide on it now and we will push this to a vote. Sinn Féin wants this motion on the agenda on 22 March at 10.30 a.m. We will discuss it. We can look at amendments from different parties and then vote on it. That is the gift we are seeking and that is the gift we are giving to the Fianna Fáil Party which claims this is its red line issue. It should be welcoming the fact that we have placed this on the agenda and given it the opportunity to fulfil the promise it made to the electorate just a couple of weeks ago. I move to push the amendment we have tabled to a vote.
