Bobby Aylward (Carlow-Kilkenny, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

Like other speakers, I want to say how disappointed and taken aback I am that the Minister, for whom I have good respect, would come in tonight and attack the Chairman of the PAC, who has done a fantastic job over the last eight months, given all the hearings we had and the hours and hours of questioning. To think that a senior Minister of the Government would come in and attack cross-party members of the PAC and personally attack the Chairman is not good enough. I am very disappointed with that.

I am very disappointed with the tribal attitude of the four Fine Gael Deputies opposite.
