Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Meetings and Engagements (16 Jan 2019)

Brendan Howlin: I warmly welcome the Taoiseach's visit to Africa. It is an important statement of Ireland's support for the development agenda and it is in keeping with our strong record of non-partisan, non-aligned development and promotion, which I welcome.

Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Communications (16 Jan 2019)

Brendan Howlin: May I ask a very direct question then, since the Ceann Comhairle wants us to be very direct and very succinct? When has the Taoiseach scheduled his next conversation with Prime Minister May? Does he propose to telephone her today? Presumably, he will allow the no confidence motion to be determined. The expectation is that she and her Government will survive that. The scale of the defeat...

Government's Brexit Preparedness: Statements (17 Jan 2019)

It is not possible for Westminster to legislate and prepare for a second referendum in that time. It is not plausible for...

Government's Brexit Preparedness: Statements (17 Jan 2019)

Brendan Howlin: Members can ask questions afterwards. When the national development plan was launched last year, I asked why there was not a cent for Rosslare Europort. There was no mention of it.
