Other Questions: Foreign Conflicts (3 Apr 2014)

Clare Daly: What the Minister of State calls the goodwill of the European Union is in fact open sponsorship of the protest movements that up-ended Yanukovych, as Deputy Wallace said.

Clare Daly: The Irish State has never really embraced a full role in the area of housing. Instead, we have seen successive governments allow the private sector have free reign in this area, even to the extent of selling off social housing schemes to occupiers in some instances, rather than introducing longer term rental schemes and so on as they did in Europe. We have the examples of other European...
