- Seanad: Maritime Safety Bill 2004: Committee Stage. (20 Apr 2005)
Paschal Mooney: I am grateful to the Minister of State for his answer. My reason for asking the question was not just with regard to whether it was a departure from the norm. I am sure the Minister of State can envisage a scenario where a garda on his or her own, although given the right by this legislation to arrest someone without a warrant, may face more than one person. There could be a potential...

Paschal Mooney: I ask the Leader to consider a debate on UN reform in light of the important appointment of the Minister for Foreign Affairs, Deputy Dermot Ahern, to be the eyes and ears, as the media describe it, throughout Europe of the Secretary General.

- Seanad: Order of Business. (24 Mar 2005)
Paschal Mooney: I wish to be associated with the compliments paid to the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform.

- Seanad: Order of Business. (24 Mar 2005)
Paschal Mooney: Yes. We should not allow what is happening in Palestine and Israel to slip off the agenda, which can happen so easily. This House has a long tradition of debating Middle East matters.
