- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport: Bus Éireann Dispute: Motion (22 Mar 2017)
Imelda Munster: I have put in an amendment to the motion because I take the view that the motion before us today is rather vague and watery. It is not specific enough.

Imelda Munster: I would like the amendment to stand as it is. I would have had no problem supporting Deputy Troy's motion if I did not feel it was vague. The reason, as I said, we need to be more specific is because the Minister, Bus Éireann management and the NTA are all being so provocative in their approach and blaming the workers.
