- Seanad: Climate Action and Low Carbon Development (Amendment) Bill 2021: Committee Stage (2 Jul 2021)
Victor Boyhan: I absolutely do, as is my wont. I will just reply. I take the Minister's point about respectful politics. I agree on that. The Minister has always operated on that basis and I acknowledge that. It is disappointing he is not accepting the amendments because, as I said earlier on, they were on the schedule for debate in the Dáil so they are not new in this House, although we are...

- Seanad: Nithe i dtosach suíonna - Commencement Matters: Planning Issues (5 Jul 2021)
Victor Boyhan: I thank the Cathaoirleach for selecting this really important Commencement matter related to planning. I welcome my colleague and friend the Minister of State.

Victor Boyhan: I thank the Minister of State for that response. I am happy with it. It was a coincidence that today's The Irish Timescarried the story.

Up until recently, it was being flown out of the country and three days later it was sitting...
