- Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): World Economic Forum (6 May 2014)
Micheál Martin: At the outset, the House should note that most of these questions were tabled four months ago but are only now up for answer. The Taoiseach would have to agree that this is entirely unsatisfactory. It is partly because the Taoiseach has halved the Taoiseach's questions periods. That was a decision of this Government. Traditionally, before this Dáil, questions to An Taoiseach were...

- Leaders' Questions (6 May 2014)
Micheál Martin: Will the Government intervene and change the policy and restore discretionary medical cards to young sick children like Alex Coyle and others who have had their cards wrongly withdrawn from them?

His medical card must be restored. I am surprised the Taoiseach has not picked up on the matter. People all over the...
