In addition to acting as the service manager, this law firm will also...

- EU Habitats Directive (20 Jan 2011)
John Moloney: I have heard Deputy Connaughton speak about this issue, which is clearly of great interest to him, on many occasions. I have been associated with turf-cutting in my own constituency of Laois-Offaly over the years. I may have plenty of time to cut turf in the future.
