Pearse Doherty (Donegal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

The Government was found out because of the scrutiny of this legislation by Deputy Ó Broin.

I put it to the Government and the party which claims to lead the Opposition that this is what real Opposition parties do. They scrutinise legislation instead of throwing power puffs across the floor in respect of issues that are not as substantial as those found by Deputy Ó Broin.

In my time in this Chamber and in the Seanad I have never seen a Minister come in with such a substantial amendment to his own amendment, one that he only tabled on Report Stage. The idea that Report Stage would continue as normal without returning to committee and dealing with this in detail is suspect. I support the proposal from Deputy Ó Broin and I commend him on his scrutiny of the Bill.
