Leaders' Questions. (25 Jan 2006)

Enda Kenny: On 23 November last year I asked if the Taoiseach would take personal responsibility for the Government action in dealing with the carnage on our roads. In 2003, 335 people lost their lives on Irish roads. In 2004 the figure was 370 and in 2005 the figure was 399. The roads are littered with monuments to tragic accidents and lost lives. So far this year, 29 people have lost their lives in...

Leaders' Questions. (25 Jan 2006)

Enda Kenny: I understand the advice of the Attorney General was the direct opposite to what the Taoiseach just read out. I drive between 40,000 and 50,000 miles per year and the numbers of road checks I come across throughout the country are few and far between. The public like to see gardaí conducting traffic checks. However, the perception is that the penalty points system is being used as a money...

Dublin-Monaghan Bombings. (25 Jan 2006)

Enda Kenny: I support Deputy Rabbitte's view. While it is not the Ceann Comhairle's doing, the division of these questions should be different. I suggest that we should not take these 37 questions here because there will not be time to ask supplementaries on any of them. If the Taoiseach agrees, we might leave these over until he next answers questions. It would be unsatisfactory to deal with India,...

Order of Business. (25 Jan 2006)

Enda Kenny: I note the publication of the legislative programme by the Chief Whip for the forthcoming session. The Taoiseach will recall that on the priority list of legislation for the autumn session of 2005 there were 14 Bills and between November and December we repeatedly asked the Taoiseach when certain of these Bills would be published. The stock response was that they would be published before the...

European Council Meeting: Statements. (25 Jan 2006)

Enda Kenny: Last December, depending on whom one spoke to, the European Union summit was predicted to be a blame game or a waiting game. As politicians, we have become used to summits teetering on the brink of collapse before last minute adjustments. However, for months before the December summit, in fact since the failure at Luxembourg, for many politicians and commentators collapse seemed inevitable....
