- Seanad: Energy Bill 2016: Second Stage (28 Jan 2016)
Mark Daly: I thank the Minister for coming to the House. We broadly welcome the Bill. Even though the EU brought this matter forward for regulation in 2011, we are now in the dying days of this Government. We were promised that there would be a revolution in the way we do business in this House. It is ironic the Minister is here today because he was here also when we recalled the House one summer to...

Last week we tried to introduce the corporate manslaughter Bill to prevent the recurrence of a situation such as the blood transfusion scandal, in which women were knowingly infected...
- Seanad: Order of Business (2 Feb 2016)
Mark Daly: Did the Senator see anybody suffer consequences as a result of the blood transfusion scandal, in which women died?
- Seanad: Order of Business (2 Feb 2016)
Mark Daly: Women died because the State did not act, and knowingly did not act. Did anybody see any consequences? Did anybody suffer other than the women?
