- Seanad: Order of Business (11 Jul 2013)
Mark Daly: That is why I am asking the Minister for Health to come to the House because he is this person's boss. He is in charge of the ambulance service and he appointed the person in charge.

Mark Daly: Is that a "No"? Is the Minister not willing to give the transparency he promised when entering government? When the banks discussed the Personal Insolvency Bill with the Government all we asked for was transparency.

We have seen what the banks did when it came to the Central Bank. Never mind that a bank manager might tell a poor mortgage holder that the bank wants to...

Mark Daly: I welcome the Minister to the House. While I realise that the Bill is amending previous legislation, I note that the Minister referred in his speech to good faith.
