Micheál Martin (Cork South Central, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

-----before anything else happens in the time ahead. I appeal to everybody in the House for co-operation in getting that legislation through. I agree with Deputy Shanahan about that gambling block. I will talk to the Minister and engage with the other banks about following the lead given by Allied Irish Banks with that initiative. Gambling has created enormous harm for families and individuals throughout the country. At long last, the Oireachtas is taking it seriously with the legislation. We need to follow through on it with actions.
