Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

I move:

That Dáil Éireann reaffirms its confidence in the Government.

I am pleased to have this opportunity to report to the House on the important work being undertaken by the Government, the major challenges that face the country and how the Government intends to meet these challenges. The debate is also an opportunity to expose the political opportunism that has resulted in this motion. Sinn Féin, not content with collapsing the power-sharing arrangements in Northern Ireland, now wants to cause similar chaos down here.
