- Seanad: Order of Business (19 Jul 2012)
Diarmuid Wilson: Yes, I have. It is my understanding that neither these meetings nor their extent were advised to the tribunal, and I will be forwarding this information to the tribunal. I ask the Leader to arrange a debate immediately on our return in September on not only the Moriarty tribunal, but the Mahon tribunal and future potential tribunals, so the costs of these tribunals are dealt with as a...
- Seanad: Order of Business (18 Jul 2012)
Diarmuid Wilson: I welcome the fact that the Taoiseach will come to the House this afternoon. I thank the Leader for arranging that debate and I look forward to hearing the Taoiseach's contribution.

- Seanad: Presidential Nominations: Motion (18 Jul 2012)

- Seanad: Presidential Nominations: Motion (18 Jul 2012)
Diarmuid Wilson: Despite promises about profound political reform, the Government has introduced a constitutional convention that is far too narrow in scope, flawed in composition and limited in resources.

What he disputes is where they are...
