- Seanad: Inland Fisheries. (21 Oct 2009)
Terry Leyden: I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Seán Haughey.

- Seanad: Inland Fisheries. (21 Oct 2009)
Terry Leyden: The board members attempted to have discharge removed in recent days but were prevented by the management of the Shannon Regional Fisheries Board. I am grateful for the Minister of State's appearance before the House but the reply does not refer to the fact that some 12 km or 13 km from the River Suck there is free fishing. It is not a fair system. I am totally opposed to it and I hope the...

Terry Leyden: I welcome the Minister of State, Deputy Roche, and compliment him and his officials on their work in providing a comprehensive overview.

- Seanad: European Union Bill 2009: Committee and Remaining Stages (22 Oct 2009)
Terry Leyden: I wish to clarify that this section refers to both Houses of the Oireachtas and that it does not confer power to joint committees. Under it, the Seanad has equal status to the Dáil. That is one of the most innovative changes in the status of the Seanad since its foundation under the 1937 Act.
