- Order of Business (23 Apr 2013)
Mattie McGrath: In light of the very honest and open interview by Marian Finucane of a certain Edmund Honohan last week, is there any chance that the Taoiseach will get the two Honohan brothers, including the eminent Mr. Honohan of the Central Bank, together in respect of the Central Bank (consolidation) Bill? They might understand that what one is advising is totally contrary to the policies of the Central...

- Leaders' Questions (24 Apr 2013)
Mattie McGrath: I, too, wish the Taoiseach a happy birthday. I hope his colleagues will help him to cut the cake. There is, however, little on which I can compliment him.

Today we will witness the annual charade...
