Mark Daly: Dáil and Seanad motions have been passed about the release of the files on the Dublin-Monaghan bombings.

Mark Daly: The attitude of some of the EU governments could be likened to the attitude of Captain Bligh of the famous “Mutiny on the Bounty”. When ordering some of the members of his crew to be given 50 lashes, he said the beatings would continue until morale improves.

- Seanad: Order of Business (25 Jun 2015)
Mark Daly: The Law Reform Commission has proposed a corporate manslaughter Bill. We have seen that those in positions of authority who should have acted did not act and as a consequence people suffered abuse that should not have happened.
