Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Brexit Preparations (17 Apr 2019)

Micheál Martin: Will the Taoiseach explain what discussions he has held with the British on these matters? What does he intend to do to get the institutions of the agreement re-established?

I welcome very much what the Speaker of the US House of Representatives, Ms Pelosi, said earlier...

Ceisteanna (Atógáil) - Questions (Resumed): Brexit Negotiations (17 Apr 2019)

He might address it in response to these questions. Did he discuss the...

Ceisteanna - Questions (Resumed): Taoiseach's Communications (17 Apr 2019)

Micheál Martin: I join all those who praised Prime Minister Ardern for her great leadership in the aftermath of the Christchurch atrocity. She made a very powerful statement to the people of New Zealand and to the world about the need for unity against hate and for all of us to stand with minorities who are under attack. The recent spurt of Islamophobic campaigns by politicians in many countries is...

Post-European Council Meetings: Statements (17 Apr 2019)

Micheál Martin: The need to hold an emergency summit of the European Council on the sole topic of how long to extend the period before which the UK will leave the European Union was itself a failure.
