- Leaders' Questions (12 Dec 2012)
Gerry Adams: Yesterday I asked the Taoiseach a number of appropriate and pertinent questions about the Government's cuts to the incomes of lower and middle-income families, to child benefit, maternity benefit and particularly the respite care grant. His practice increasingly in defending bad policy decisions which are scrutinised by Sinn Féin is cynically to use the recent conflict in the North as a...
- Leaders' Questions (12 Dec 2012)
Gerry Adams: I want to have all of these issues debated in this Chamber. I also want to have this bad budget debated in an informed way. My specific appeal to the Taoiseach yesterday was to reverse the despicable cut to the respite care grant. He did not answer me and I am making the appeal again. I know the Taoiseach does not like me putting these questions, so he should forget about me for a second.

Will the...

If he missed it, if it did not come on his agenda for some reason or other, that would at least have been understandable, but it seems he did give it careful consideration after all. He does not, however, seem to have given careful...

- Leaders' Questions (12 Dec 2012)
Gerry Adams: This is not him being tough - in fact, it is the easy choice. Being tough would be standing up to the golden elites, the financiers and the big people in our society, not the small people.

- Order of Business (12 Dec 2012)
Gerry Adams: This Bill is extremely controversial. The Government TDs must have the opportunity to come in here and argue for it and we certainly want to argue against it. We have put down a series of amendments to it and the Minister has even put down amendments to it. I acknowledge some extra time has been allocated but we need days to be allocated for this. We are cutting the jobseeker's benefit,...
