Order of Business (20 Feb 2013)

Enda Kenny: No, it is not intended to have any supplementary budget this session. Deputy Hannigan raised this earlier. The report is now published; it will go to the Oireachtas committee. The advisory group made recommendations about the importance of a universal payment, but it examined issues of taxation of child benefit and a two-tier system. The report will come back to the House for discussion...

Order of Business (20 Feb 2013)

Enda Kenny: This all depends upon European decisions in regard to the semester, as it is called. It may be, as I said earlier on, that the budget for 2014 might be presented a little earlier, but I cannot confirm that yet. In any event, we have enough challenges with implementing budget 2013 before we get to considering budget 2014.

Order of Business (20 Feb 2013)

Order of Business (20 Feb 2013)

Enda Kenny: Will the Deputy repeat his question please?

Leaders' Questions (26 Feb 2013)

Enda Kenny: The Deputy is clear on the fact that when a tribunal is set up by the Houses of the Oireachtas, the Oireachtas has no further function in the matter. The report of the Moriarty tribunal has already been made. The allegations or comments made by the Deputy could have been applied to a number of other personalities in other tribunals also. The Moriarty tribunal made recommendations on...

Leaders' Questions (26 Feb 2013)

Enda Kenny: I have no intention of reopening the Moriarty tribunal or any other tribunal that has reported to the House. I did not realise that the Deputy seems to be amnesiac in some respects. Claims have been made about the extent and veracity of information and knowledge given to other tribunals. When someone goes before a tribunal, he or she takes an oath to tell the truth. If people have access...
