- Seanad: Order of Business (30 Apr 2015)
Mark Daly: All right. He is not robbing it; he is taking it legally. The Government said he should not do it, so I hope it will bring in legislation to ensure this activity is regarded as robbing.

He was in the British Army himself and was serving in Iraq...
